Sarah Palin Hosting Fox News Show, Starts Thursday

Sarah Palin has already signed on to do a documentary series about Alaska that will air on TLC later this year. Now the Chicago Tribune is reporting that the former governor will host the FOX News series "Real American Stories," which premieres Thursday night at 10 PM. It will pre-empt "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren." The show is going to chronicle people with real-life tales of overcoming adversity. According to the Tribune, “Real American Stories” is part of a deal Palin made with FOX in January to join the network as a contributor. The first episode will feature stories about a Marine who died to save his fellow soldiers and a stock broker who helps underprivileged students pay for college.

Thursday’s show will also feature appearances by several celebrities who will discuss overcoming adversity in their own careers. As of now the list includes musicians Toby Keith and LL Cool J, along with former GE Chief Executive Jack Welch.
