VP Hopeful Sarah Palin - Former Sports Reporter?
Sarah Palin’s Resume Includes Sports Intern.
What hasn’t Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin accomplished? This former beauty pageant contestant (1st runner up and Miss Congeniality Winner in a Miss Alaska Pageant) and mother of five appears to be an extremely well rounded woman. Before heading into the realm of politics as the Governor of Alaska she also tried her hand at sports reporting in the late 1980’s.
KTUU-TV in Anchorange, a NBC Affiliate station employed her as a sports intern. Back them, she went by Sarah Heath reporting for Channel 2 Sports. Though her stay was brief, she graced listeners with her Alaskan accent and obvious charm.
Palin gave four minute reports on sports scores for college and professional baseball and basketball games. And of course, The Iditarod (Alaskan huskie races) was covered as well by her. Sarah actually did a good job in her former sports broadcasting role.
