Why? It's hardly going to be an interview but a propaganda ad for the McCain campaign, nothing is going to come out of this except Hannity kissing her ass over and over praising her as nearly like a diety - and republican supporters will eat it all up as proof of how amazing she is. Fixed news will more than likly also edit out any screw ups she may or may not make so as to present her in the best possible light and attempt to portray her earlier interview with Gibson as biased and cruel to her.
There's nothing worth to watch of this interview that is more so than another dumb sleazy lying McCain ad.

oh wait. $100 says she's going to continue on about how she said thanks but no thanks to the bridge to no where lie.

I disagree. I see this more as an opportunity for Fox to be "Fair and Balanced" than to paint Palin in a pretty picture.

Fox is becoming more "Fair and Balanced" over time. They really don't call people "un-American" anymore nor does Bill O'Reilly win debates anymore because he can YELL LOUDER THAN YOU AND THEN CALL THE PLUGS.

I am more concerned about how Fox handles this interview than I am about them pitching Palin softballs.

It will be interesting, since Fox cannot afford (too much) to lie and be unbalanced.

What do you mean by how they conduct the interview?

They've done a good job of that for the last several years - talking points directly from the white house (or is it directly from Rove's desk) and now Rove is an "expert" show host as well.

Re: FOX News' Sean Hannity to Interview Palin

Who saw the interview?

Hannity might as well have just stickered a ass kisser onto his forehead.
No surprise whatsoever at the patheticly weak questions.

Palin: John McCain has a plan for the economy.

Instead of following up and pressing Palin on what that plan may have been hannity instead follows up with a comment of Obama using the economic downturn for political gains.

Fixed news at it's best.

I watched it, she did well, although her being interviewed by Hannity is like having Biden interviewed by Stephanie Miller.

Speaking of which, Obama did O'Reilly, when is McCain doing Olbermann?

Olbermann is not even close to the equivalent, but opposite ideologically, to O'Reilly. Maybe Wolfe Blitzer.

Olbermann/Maddow are wacko conspiracy theorists.

Opposite of Hannity would probably be Chris Matthews - aside from the near orgasm he gets when discussing Obama - he generally sticks to legitimate topics. (Although if it were a mental dog fight, my money would be on Chris Matthews)

I have to disagree. But it is a difficult argument to actually prove considering how much time they spend in the spotlight and all the statements they say. Because of our leanings we tend to throw out partisan behavior in the press.
