Everything for Youns

COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?

PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —

COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.

PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.

COURIC: Can you name any of them?

PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

Sarah, how do you spell your name?

Oh, you know… pretty much the way you would. It’s a very common name, you know, not — I mean a lot of people have heard one like it. I spell it the same way I always, the way my mother taught me, just like you and everybody else. There’s this, you know, crazy perception that we, Alaska, you know we spell just like everyone does. It’s not this strange foreign country unlike Washington. But, you know, like, I, you know, I get it–this gotcha journalism we all have to deal with these days. Plus, you know I can see that Russian guy in the morning from where I live. Nkay?
