Sarah Palin's publisher files suit against Gawker over leak

Don’t upset Mama Grizzly. HarperCollins, Sarah Palin’s publisher, has filed a lawsuit against Gawker Media for leaking pages of the ex-governor’s upcoming book, America By Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag. The Associated Press reports HaperCollins filed a complaint in Manhattan Friday after Gawker refused to take down excerpts from the book, which is headed to bookstores Nov. 23. (Other websites that also leaked the pages adhered to the publisher’s demands.) Palin even addressed the leak via her Twitter: On Nov. 18, she tweeted: “Isn’t that illegal?” Gawker, however, defended their decision in a post titled “Sarah Palin is Mad at Us for Leaking Pages from Her Book.UPDATE: A federal New York judge ordered that Gawker remove the leaked pages from their site Saturday in an injunction that prevents the website from “continuing to distribute, publish, or otherwise transmit pages from the book” prior to a Nov. 30 hearing.

    She’s just a mama grizzly when it comes to defending her books.

    • Buffy Freak

      LOL!

  • TruthHURTS

    So is this non-fiction like Twilight and Harry Potter?

    Is she going to tell the Alaskan voters why she resigned from being the governor on a holiday weekend.

    Is Sara going to give parenting advice?

    Is she going to give people tips on how to succeed at being a political fraud and FAKE.

    Is Sara going to answer the question if she thought McCain would be president if he chose Romney/Guilani or a REAL GRIZZLY bear for VP instead of her?

  • Mikie

    Yawn…isn’t her 15 minutes of fame up yet?

    • kathy60

      You and me both. Maybe if we all ignore her and her family they will finally go away. We casn always hope!!

  • Kate

    I personally can’t wait to hear her reflections on flag. That’s some good grammar in the title there, don’t cha know.

    • Clay

      Indeed. Also, what exactly does “America by Heart,” mean? Has she memorized America?

      • Kat

        LOL. The completely overdone patriotic buzzword title is a huge turn-off for me. I love America, but I do not love when American politicians pander like that.

  • Rita

    Sarah is acting more like Richard Nixon everyday…she’s got more secrets than Watergate and I don’t trust her and never will…she will be an embarassment just like he was for the Republicans…and I am a strong Independent woman who will NOT be fooled by her delusions of greatness!

    Disgusting person. If there is a God, he’s already printed Sarah’s ticket to hell.

    How many movie tid bits have been leaker, you can find a spoiler for everything.
    This is just another way to keep her name in the news.
    She continually fought with the Wasilla counsil, harassing folks that don’t agree with her-this is not news.
    Shame on you
