Sarah Palin Signs On as Fox News Commentator

THE TELEGRAPH: Sarah Palin has signed on as a commentator with Fox News, fulfilling predictions that she would pursue a career in television after stepping down as governor of Alaska.

The conservative star will not have her own show, but will contribute to various news programmes and present an occasional series involving ordinary American heroes.

She will therefore have time for other pursuits that will keep her name alive as a potential presidential candidate in 2012, but the move will increase speculation that her future lies outside of electoral politics.

"I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at Fox News," Mrs Palin said in a statement posted on the network's website. "It's wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news." >>> Alex Spillius in Washington | Monday, January 11, 2010
