Today we had a guest speaker in our class, Retired Constable Ian Stock. He talked about dealing with the media in crisis situations. He made a point about how scandal sells and then went on to talk about Sara Palin and the way she was handled by the media this pas presidential campaign.
Sara Palin has been a treat for the media as she has been linked to scandals and has publicly embarrassed herself. Headlines like, 'Sara Palin goes on crazy shopping spree's', 'Sara Palin did not know Africa was a continent and that Canada was part of North America' were spread throughout the news.
In this Article I found on the fox news website, Sara Palin reacts to the rumors and defends herself. I wanted to give an example of how she reacted to the media and how she handled herself.
The media are always all over celebrities, it's interesting to see how different public figures deal with this.
