The Lock-Down of Sarah Palin

The big debate yesterday was whether it was wise for Oprah to refuse to have Sarah Palin on her show. Her appearance would, after all, command a HUGE audience and garner some serious $$$$$ from advertisers. But another question needs to be asked, would the Republican apparatus, which has already drawn a circle around Mrs. Palin, even allow her to be on Oprah? Here is a vid of a campaign staffer explaining her contempt for the media, some of it deserve IMO, and also indicating that the press will be given very limited access to the Presidential… I mean VP candidate:

This will make the base, who despises the “drive-by” media, very happy no doubt. But I’m not sure that this idea of a virtual media lock-down on Palin is going to win over the independent and undecided voters who, like it or not base, will be needed in order to assure a GOP victory in the fall. Don’t forget, we are living in an era often referred to as THE INFORMATION AGE!!!!!! Hint. Hint.
