When we talked with FNC SVP of programming Bill Shine this morning, we asked for his thoughts on how his newest contributor, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin performed in her first few appearances on the network.

“She was very good, very strong,” said Shine. Asked when she’ll be back on the air and what she’ll be doing, Shine says, “I would actually have an answer if the situation were different. We’ve back-burnered a lot of things because of the earthquake in Haiti.”
