No Joke: Fox, Palin Blink as LL Cool J Knocks Them Out

Sarah Palin and Fox News recycle! Or at least they tried to until multiplatinum artist and award winning actor LL Coool J called them on their crap. Fox News has pulled the LL Cool J segment from Sarah Palin’s new show “Real American Stories” after the rapper tartly pointed out on Twitter that the interview was done in 2008.

Fox says that that two-year old piece was taped with the understanding it could be used  any way the network wanted. Actually it had been used as part of an FNC webseries called “Real American Stories.” Wow, um Sarah, how does leftover crow taste?

Fox News cut LL Cool J’s segment, pulled down the website, and issued this snotty comment about LL Cool J who who stars on CBS’s NCIS: Los Angeles, which shows how utterly petty and ignorant they are, considering he has  has appeared in over a dozen movies, starred in 2 seasons worth of NCIS, and performed on numerous television shows as a guest as well as starring in 76 episodes of the Emmy Award winning series “In The House.”

However, as it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.

Ahhaaah! Sarah Palin is the one with a media fledgling career, and if this is the level of professionalism and care with which she is working, it may not sprout wings.

Sarah Palin’s Fooling the Public Again

Tomorrow, April Fool’s Day, Sarah Palin appropriately debuts on Fox News with her show Real American Stories.  Surprise! There’s not much real about it.  LL Cool  J was promoted as one of the guests who would be  discussing their professional successes in a segment called “In Their Own Words.”

LL Cool J, dude, WTF? Fer realz?  Um, no. April Fools! The rapper said on his Twitter feed:

Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palins Show. WOW

A two year old interview packaged as a “Real American Stories.” I thought it was Fox News, not this History Channel.  I wonder if this is just a clever plan to bankrupt and destroy Fox’s credibility. Maybe Sarah is actually a deep mole triple agent for the liburuls.
