Today on the Menu: How Much is Sarah Palin Making for the Memoir?

Today on the Morning Media Menu, we pondered the news that Sarah Palin has already received at least $1.25 million advance for her memoir.

In addition to that tidy sum, we also discussed the day’s other big headlines: NY Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr.‘s Titanic metaphors, Politico’s local news battle with The Washington Post, and disgraced reporter Jayson Blair‘s upcoming visit to a journalism school.
