From CNN Associate Political Editor Rebecca Sinderbrand
Sarah Palin was mum when asked what publications she reads.
(CNN) - Sarah Palin has had a sometimes-tense relationship with the media since being named to the Republican ticket – so reporters have been wondering: which news outlet does get her seal of approval? Where does she get her news? After watching Palin respond to the question during a CBS interview broadcast Tuesday night – they’re still wondering. In an interview broadcast Tuesday night, Katie Couric Palin which newspapers and magazines she had regularly read in the past to “stay informed and to understand the world?” Replied Palin: “I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media…” The Alaska governor declined to get specific when pressed by Couric to name a specific publication. “Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years,” she said. Asked again which news organizations she was referring to, Palin told Couric she had “a vast variety of sources where we get our news. “Alaska isn’t a foreign country where it’s kind of suggested that things like ‘Wow, how could you keep in touch with the rest of what Washington DC may be thinking and doing when you live up in Alaska. Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America.” No major newspaper or magazine has yet gotten the ultimate seal of approval from Palin: her much-sought interviews since becoming the Republican nominee have gone to the nation’s television networks.
