Washington (CNN) - Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's sharp criticism of the media won't stop her from breaking bread with journalists next month at a dinner here in the nation's capital.
The 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee will be the GOP speaker at the Gridiron Club and Foundation's annual winter dinner, the organization announced Friday.
House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, D-Massachusetts, will be the Democratic speaker at the Dec. 5 event.
Palin's appearance at the Gridiron dinner will come a few weeks after her new book, "Going Rogue: An American Life," goes on sale.


Go Sarah, keep the liberals and media spinning mad.
Has she got time for this? We need her to come to Florida and tell us who the Real Republicans are for the 2010 races.
Snot drips from the lip-sticked pig's mouth every time it opens.
Amazing how this ignorant sow keeps getting attention. She is an embarrassment.
Oh goodie, she can make a fool of herself as she breaks bread with the very people who cost her the election. Hopefully her flashcards will be more usefu then.
And, we don't need her or want her in Florida!
Would this woman just get lost already...
For the record, if the media doesn't forget what you have done, what makes you think being nice will persuade them? Heed this warning.
Todd and Sarah Palin both quit their jobs while many Americans lost jobs. If she wants to support her husband that's her business but pandering to the public to support them is totally disgusting. I'd rather help some child or family who are in need of support.
when will CNN change the name of this to the Palin Ticker?
I wanna get people mad...
Jehova's witness just came and I probably should have said, "See my back tat! Wanna read what it says?"
But is better LIVE! Heed this warning...
Sorry but what are they gonna do?
$10 she cancels.
Narcissistic Nut- case that McCain gave to the World...
Thanks so much Mr. McCain !
Thank God that you two are not running the country !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I smell fear with every ugly, nasty comment spoken to or about Sarah Palin!
I hope she is paying for her dinner. She will leave Lipstick on the glasses
This chick needs to be having dinner at home with her family. She's a nut-job.
CNN has a serious fetish regarding Sarah Palin. Every day, they let us know what she is doing. Perhaps it is because she riles up the left, which is CNN's target audience, thereby galvanizing support against anyone who would challenge a liberal candidate. Enough already. Frankly, I find it disturbing.
NO NO NO Respectable media would waste their time going to see this bozo.
while people in this country starve...sarah breaks bread with reporters most likely to hawk her book of nonsense....shame shame....truely a pig with lipstick !
Not on this topic, but I think it is FANTASTIC that a woman cop took down that muslim murdering piece of garbage at Fort Hood. Put THAT in your misogynist pipe and smoke it, you 11th century crap-cans!
AND CNN can't let go of this freak show ..not enough people in ALASKA let alone the rest of the country care what this bottom feeder thinks or does ..its all about making money and nothing about being any kind of servant to the people .she has proven that by stepping down as governor before her job experience caught up with her ..
so come on CNN let it go .

I should run for public office ,maybe help get this country back on track with possative reinforcement to the people for the people and not BIG BUSINESS AND SPECIAL INTREST GROUPS
Palin is sure fond on gong to dinners......maybe she should consider being the lovely idiot that jumps out of the cake.
I love reading the hateful angry posts by the so called enlightened and tolerant liberals. Wow! She's a sow, she's an idiot, and she has snot dripping from her mouth. Its a good thing the Republicans are hate mongers; keep the hate coming left wingers and I promise you it will cost your party when the shine comes off of President Obama.
Sarah Palin has really become an embarrassment to the GOP....I hope they keep her!!!!
Maybe she can sit at a table with George Bush, jr and they can try to out-dumb one another.
As a Canadian reading these comments.....I think you American's sum up your feelings quite clearly. I love reading your comments!!!
