When Sarah Palin addresses the National Tea Party Convention on Saturday night, MSNBC plans to cover the speech live.
The cable network's decision follows on the heels of yesterday's news that Fox would be airing it, too.
CNN, which has a documentary planned Saturday night, expects to air parts of the speech on different broadcasts over the weekend, while sending several correspondents to Nashville for the convention.
C-SPAN is trying to cover Palin's speech live.

Palin versus the Progressives = GOOD versus EVIL and the Anti-Christ.

I believe that she is the 'REAL DEAL', and we need a voice of strong reason & conviction in our country. We also need to send a message to all politicians. If you are not for smaller Government, balanced budget, and uphold the CONSTITUTION. Do not apply.

Go Sarah Palin, keep truckin you are needed to make a difference.
jcandme85
She evades the questions about running for offices as well as things that slam the current administration members. Tactfully skirting what is wrong while cautiously approaching the issues. She doesn't need the ethics committee up her backside again.....you know....the ones who have NO ethics!

MSNBC should be booted out of the Tea Party Convention. See if that gives Chris Matthrews a tingle up his leg.

That pesky first amendment - someone should look at getting that fixed, huh Polly?

errrr, David, Obama already did that when he had Reuters pull the budget story.
David March
The O'Reilly Factor broke the news after the 2008 presidential election that Sarah Palin apparently did not realise that 1) Africa was not a single country 2) which countries were in NAFTA 3) basic principles of the relationships between different levels of government in the US. I also hopes she lets the Tea Party people know why she is supporting John McCain and whether she thinks Rush Limbagh should be taken off air for using the same offensive term in public that Mr Emanuel used in private. Finally, I want to hear her explain how taking the profits from mining in Alaska and redistributing that wealth to the citizens (who didn't work for it) isn't socialism.
liberals are destroying this nation
@Jack2011 , you are such a dumbass. This phony story comes from Huffington Post , a radical left wing website with zero credibility. The county where sarahs property resides has incorrectly assesed the value of the homes , so the problem lies with the county employees , not Sarah . Try again , stupid , to smear Sarah with some other lie , you are wrong as usual

"The governor coached her staff on how to disguise the amount of electrical work needed at the mansion to hook up her new tanning bed."
"The manager of the Palins' travel schedule searched for a public event to use as justification ("I just need one") to charge the state for an airplane flight for Palin's daughter, Willow, who made the trip but had missed the event given as its justification."
Stay classy Palin, putting your bill in the hands of task payers. You just may be a great politician afterall!
liberals are destroying this nation
Expect a lot of childish behavior at MSNBC during her speech . Sarah is elegant , dignified ,classy , decent , humble ,beautiful ,and full of common sense . Basically the opposite of almost all liberals

Is this why Obomb said to turn off the cable news shows?

I love the Progressive bashing of Palin... If you can't debate on facts, you resort to name calling and degrading comments. Keep it up Progs... It just makes the Tea Partiers stronger and more determined to slam the Congress' doors in your face when you all lose in Nov. 2010!

Palin's speech should be entertaining. But at best she is riding the fence. Tea Parties and John McCain do not go together in my mind. He is too much of a big government guy and been entrenched in DC too long, yet she will be making a trip to AZ to stump for him. So where does she really stand?

rogue, Trusting Energized Alaskan
Please take time to read her recent op-ed, an excellent, sincere and insightful script. Thank God she turned Alaska over to trusted hands. We need her badly stumping around down here in the lower 48. For the next few years, she is going to put the heat in the tea.

For the 'Nay' sayers, hay what is the big deal. It is just one woman. Get over it. What harm can she do? I mean, mannnn, we ain't never had a skirt in the WH. Well I guess there was that Clinton gender confusion thing in the nineties. But it twern't official, mind you, it was a Bill not a Hillary. What, are you afraid a gal from Alaska might get it done in 12? Up there, all they know is ice, blubber and moose, so stop your blubbering. Oh wait, I finally get the connection. You are afraid of getting torched.

I plan to connect with Alaska this late June, yea, I am a bit of a Florida pansy picking summer warmth. Do they have tea parties in Alaska? Never heard of any. I'd sure like to look one up, up there.

Tax cheating is a badge of honor for the Progressives, you know the current Administration. Do you rejoice that Palin has jumped into Obama's camp?

Will Palin's speech be translated into English? And will Fox News cut her off early when they decide she's making an utter fool of herself?
Jack2011
I wonder how much of that $100,000 will the McCain campaign get. At least some people in the tea party realize this and will not give her their money.
jackphat
So you can either hear her speech on C-Span or watch Olberman/Matthews & Maddow vomit all through her speech. I don't care much for vomit.

Good, I will watch it on CSPAN.

I personally don't mind the Tea Party Convention for use as a networking and planning meeting, if fact, more power to them for that. But if they come out of this with a plan to unite as one and become a Third Party they are done as far as I am concerned. I will not support a third party. Every time this has been tried, it has left the progressives even more entreanched, and that we cannot afford.

Sarah continues to be the voice of the people.

let us see, last year the media ignored us, like Time

now they cozy up on the fringe

Obama told his folks to stay away from the box, and what, the tea starts to show up on the box. Was there a hidden agenda there or just another clueless speech?
*
Throwing tea is the free art of the American electorate. The true, the broad base of throwing tea will never be fully organized. Remain vigilant America, lend hands and give funds, but freedom remains the truest course. Turn on a dime, when it is mishandled. Turn on a candidate who usurps.

I do believe good public servants will be found and they will have their day, their time, and then their leave.

I wonder if they'll actually broadcast an entire sentence without interruption. If they do, all 200 of their viewers will turn them off.

Perhaps they'll learn something!

This will be great,,, MSNBC will get better ratings televising Sarah than Schultzie, Olbermaddow or the Tingly One get during the week
Mad-MO
I wouldn't watch MSNBC if Jesus Christ himself was scheduled to speak. MSNBC has nothing to offer that would ever make me want to watch that channel unles it was Obama-Soetoro resigning from office and MSNBC was the only station I could get. I don't even watch NBC television. For the past year, the only local station I have watched is ABC and that's for 15 minutes a day and only to get the weather. MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC are TRASH.
thomas jackson
looks like they are trying to boost thier ratings
Sharon
Exactly...I will watch it on youtube.

I THINK THEY ARE GOING TO SET A TRAP BE VERY CAREFUL SARAH.

LOL! The trap will be set the minute "Sarah" opens her's!

Hmmm...so personal freedom, independence and fiscal responsibility (among many others) are a trap? Your green monster is showing!
Beyond-FED-uP !!!
Don't forget obama just dissed the cable media. You might be surprised
to see them trying to'Get Back' at obama. Could this really happen? We'll see !
Big Orange
Look people, the only reason BSNBC is covering this thing is to try and turn the Tea Party into the Redneck Party. Y'all watch they'll be interviewing every toothless inbred hick they can find. I'll try to keep my cousins in the house.
Loyal72
MSNBC certainly needs the help, and Sarah should do it. There is a risk, however. A couple of people just might discover she is NOTHING of what MSNBC has accused her of. Additionally, they might be pressed to show other Palin events in order to survive. I find C-SPAN's decision logical and equitable!
BWAtl
Funny thing,everything out in the open and no locked doors.
ar547
Anything said will be taken out of context, then used to smear the Speaker and the Movement by the Goverment Run Media. (i.e. MSNBC)
Bozzwell
With any luck they will quickly realize she has nothing of substance to offer for her $100,000, and cut her off after 20 mins!
ken sa
SHE WILL SAY THINGS THAT MEAN SOMETHING. NOT LIKE YOUR WHITE GUY IN BLACK FACE!!
