8. Under the circumstances tonight's show will make her look very bad
I'm sure she'll be joking and popping off at the mouth and ya betcha-ing all over the place. But everyone watching will be thinking about the people who were killed yesterday. Especially 9 year old Christina.

10. It was cancelled due to LOW RATINGS.
It started out at five million viewers, and ended with less than half that.

Not a trend line for success.


Simpson cartoon repeats get higher ratings.

13. You have to wonder whether Sarah cancelled when she realized he base thought she was a dolt
I've read half a dozen articles by outdoors people who are probably conservative complaining about her hunting "style" (not knowing how to fire the gun, flying 600 miles to go hunting as in how do you get the food back etc.) I wonder how Alaskans feel about the show. Anyone know?
