Palin's interview with Oprah

From Erika Bolstad in Washington D.C. –

Oprah Winfrey’s show is on right now in Washington D.C., and here are some highlights from Oprah’s interview with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. I'll be updating as the show continues:

On whether Oprah, who backed Barack Obama in the 2008 election, "snubbed" Palin by not having her on her show: "It didn’t register -- no offense to you, but it wasn’t the center of my universe."

Sarah Palin's book tour

From Sean Cockerham in Anchorage --

Sarah Palin posted this afternoon on her Facebook page that her upcoming book tour will include interviews with Barbara Walters and several conservative talk show hosts as well as "local Alaska personalities Bob & Mark and Eddie Burke."

Here's her full post:

I am very, very excited about the upcoming road trip for my book. It will be an honor to meet as many of you as possible!

“Going Rogue” publisher HarperCollins is working hard to schedule book signings across the nation, and we’ll be announcing the locations in the next day or two. I’ve decided to travel to cities outside of the typical book tour venues, and I hope to cover as much of the country as I can.
