Palin Claims She Reads 'The Economist'

[Force10FromMimico]

Nah, she didn't want to say Go Dog Go.

[UnhappyDreamer]

The Economist is not for kids like Palin...

The Economist is the best magazine around in my opinion. I hope she does read it. Hopefully in a due time, she will come to realize that Africa is indeed a continent and not a country.

@PhysStud2006 you seem more like a yellow press reading-guy.. but that's just me. The Economist is more about facts, and not unsubstantiated accusations, you know.. ;)

Idiots like Matthews and Couric have this belief that if you arent from a major population area that there is nothing but local papers.I heard that garbage all the time while in the Army.Wrong answer a@@holes.Go to a Hastings and you can get newspapers and magazines from all over the world.Just a bunch of PAB's with their noses up Obama's crotch.Sara was nice about.She should of told Couric to FOAD.

What's wrong with the Economist? An excellent read.

[kappelmeister123]

I read the Economist (it takes about 4 hours cover to cover)., NY times (main stories), and businessweek (5th grade read)... but then again I am trader at a hedge fund so its in my business to know how money & politics intersect

[PhysStud2006]

@kappelmeister123 Four hours? You are one fast reader;)

[FerreThoughts]

Ooh, I read the Economist, legit.

Not cover to cover, but the main articles, the politics, and science/technology.

The actual economic parts of the Economist go right over my head, lol. But I'm just 16, I haven't even taken economics 101 or anything yet.

I love it, it makes all the American news sources look so narrow minded.

[canuckistani]

nobody who says they read the economist actually reads the economist..the people who read the economist are too busy doing shit with their lives to talk about it

[tyty1794]

i'm young, relatively uneducated & almost unemployed but I read the economist . Every week. Primarily because it kicks fictions ass.

And for the first time I talked about it.

[SoINeedAName48]

She's a complete cipher.

She'll spew the lines she's give (and do a decent job of it) - but an original thought?

Not a chance.

[EricJaffa]

Good catch on putting the two clips together.

[newbreed1]

When does he have time to read these? Between chaning diapers, hunting for moose, or governing Alaska?
