By James Rainey and Robin Abcarian / Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES — A group of Sarah Palin associates launched a sharp attack Wednesday against "Game Change," saying the TV movie offers a false portrayal of the former Alaska governor that is fueled by the animus of a few disgruntled campaign officials.

"This is sick," said Meghan Stapleton, Palin’s former press secretary in Alaska. "The media has gone too far.

"You accepted the false narrative of a couple of people who sought revenge and fabricated a story more than three years ago, and who are now only happy to confirm their own fictitious events to rewrite history."

HBO offered to screen the film for Palin, but she declined.

The two-hour film portrays Palin as painfully unaware of world affairs

Frankly, it gives fiction a bad name," said Randy Scheunemann, who advised Palin on foreign policy when she was Republican presidential candidate John McCain’s running mate in 2008. "It is based on intentionally misleading lies and mischaracterizations."

Sorry Randy, you give advisors a bad name, you foreign policy wiz kid!

It's starting to make sense now...how conservatives always talk about "the media" in regards to their image. Sorry, but people knew what a crime had been committed introducing Palin as candidate for VP LONG before there was a Hollywood script.

I loved the preview scene where she's asked, "Do you know why we're in Iraq?," to which she says, "I sure do...because Sadaam Hussein attacked us on 9/11!" If any of what this film portrays is close to being true, John McCain should hang his head in disgrace.

Guess she doesn't think or remember we are in the 21 century where we have the internet, youtube and cellphones with video. But can't claim she's the ultimate DUMBASS reTHUG.......there are alot more as dumb as dirt as her out there! Like the welfare/tinfoilcrown queen and frothy the tinfoilcrown king.

I think Game Change gives Palin credit for a lot more intelligence, decency, and integrity than she ever demonstrated. If she had been portrayed as a corrupt, ignorant, woman hating bully, someone who used "religion" to dupe dumb people, then it would have been an accurate portrayal. Palin and her buddies should be thankful that her image was cleaned up for this production.

Come on Palin supporters! Really? Everyone involved in the 2008 campaign has told the same stories. Everyone except the people Palin brought in with her. Who doesn't know that the Queen of England is not the head of the British government? She couldn't figure that out after Tony Blair was in the news for over a year during the Iraqi buildup? Africa as a nation? My God. This woman is stupid. That's not an ad homien attack but the only conclusion you could reasonably deduce from facts in evidence. I think she thinks that the what newspapers do you read as a gotcha question because she can't read at all.

Glo, haven't seen this, but if your description is accurate, then you are right - this is MOSTLY fiction if palin comes off as anything but a narcissistic vindictive creep. This is a woman who went after an "ally" because that woman told her, IN PRIVATE, when palin was on the Wasilla city council, that chewing gum was not professional looking after a meeting. That's the kind of petty thing that can set palin off.

"I remember after the recall meeting how I was going to help her," Kilkenny told me. Palin had a habit of smacking gum during city council meetings. Kilkenny thought more people would take her seriously if she knocked it off. "So at the next council meeting, I sat next to her mom. I said, 'Tell Sarah to ditch the gum.'" And the response? "She didn't take it too well."

Could Sarah Palin despise Anne Kilkenny because Kilkenny once suggested she refrain from chewing gum? I'd like to believe it's not true. But I'm honestly not so sure.

Gee Sarah, why for ever would they seek revenge? And this "more three years ago" thing... is there some sort of statute of limitations on this stuff?

I probably will not watch it. There are much more interesting historical figures and living through Palin's 15 minutes was excruciating enough at the time it was actually happening.

The Boston Herald needs to pull its face out of teapublicon butts long enough to get a reality check. Of course, $arah and her sycophants don't like being presented in any manner except "Undefeated".

LOL - imagine a movie entitled "Undefeated" about $arah AFTER she contributed to losing the 2008 presidential/vice presidential election. AND after she quit half way through her governorship in Alaska in order to give speeches in order to get rich. Oh, and let's not forget that she formed a super pac in order to use the loose super pac rules to write off her daily living expenses. Y'all do know that as long as she 'acts' like she's a candidate, she has full use of the super pac money. $ara bought a house in Arizona that she can use for her 'campaign headquarters' and where almost every activity that happens in the house can be legally charged to her super pac.

Making this saga into a movie... even a for-tv style movie... is like filming a train wreck then broadcasting it over and over...

I get the fascination and rubbernecking... I kinda wanted to do that when I heard about this film several months ago... but I already lived through this travesty once; why subject myself to it again voluntarily?

All that said... the Julianne Moore as Sarah sends more shivers down my spine than Tina Fey... and that was enough for nightmares...

Then again, I come from a long line of people who love the history channel... Oh so confused...

    If this story is so false, why didn't Palin do something about it when the book came out 2 years ago? She could have sued Halperin and Heilemann for libel and Steve Schmidt for slander, but she didn't. Why? Because she knows she can't win. The only people who believe that she has been smeared are her loyal supporters who will believe anything she says. They even believed her revision of Paul Revere's ride even though every history book said something different.

      Serious? After almost FOUR YEARS of Birtherism and Muslim Kenyan Wrightist insanity?

      I don't care if it's accurate or not -- Palin and her legion of liars have NO PLACE to complain. The time to make a stand for accuracy in media portrayals of politicians was over a decade ago.

      I find it funny that these 'Palin associates' say the movie lies regarding Palin not knowing world affairs, when in reality there are plenty of examples that shows she truly does not know world affairs. As another poster stated, everyone knows 9/11 was the result of Al Quida, not Saddam Hussuin. Yet Palin thinks that's why we were in Iraq. Not to mention she does not even know Africa is a continent, not a country.

      So for perhaps the billionth time in the past 4 years, I wonder how can the people of Alaska had voted this lamebrain into office of governor. She shouldn't been mayor! (roll eyes)

      kj0-the review has got to be better than a movie with a subject that's all wink and giggle and no substance.

      The first thing I knew about Palin disgusted me so much that I never saw her as anything but an opportunist. It was the film the Repubs put out where she paraded around in a beauty contest in her bathing suit. It was as if they were saying she would be a good VP because and only because she was a contestant in a beauty pageant.

      Disgustingly, insultingly nauseating.

Oh, and she got to keep then clip of her parading in her swimming suit. My understanding is the Palin family gathers every holiday and birthday to watch it. The "congeniality" just oozes from her-into a sickening pile of slime on the floor. It's a real shame she didn't slip in it. I, for one, would have loved to see her covered in her own slime.

      In an unusual, 50-minute telephone call with reporters, seven Palin associates offered a scathing review of the film. Though all said they had not seen the movie, due to air on March 10 on HBO, they said excerpts and descriptions by others led them to believe the filmmakers had no interest in presenting positive views of Palin, played by Julianne Moore.

      The GOP thought they could slip Palin past the entire nation and into the White House.

      And today, after the Palin debacle, that same GOP still thinks it can slip its agenda past the American people.

      It'll never end.

      Who do you trust more to have better instincts about world affairs, including our friends and enemies: Sarah Palin or Barack Obama?

      Only a true nutbag would trust Sarah with anything. She is after all dumber than a rock.

      'World affairs' knowledge doesn't come from seeing Russia from her roof.

      Amazing some feeble-minded people still try to defend her stupidity.

      "You accepted the false narrative of a couple of people who sought revenge and fabricated a story more than three years ago, and who are now only happy to confirm their own fictitious events to rewrite history."

      These narratives have basically come from the inside. Why exactly would the inside seek revenge and fabricate a story? Some of these portrayals appear to fit with what people on the outside actually saw with their own eyes. Exactly what was a false portrayal of her? Just saying something is false or that people were seeking revenge isn't registering????? Evidence please.

      Sarah Decline interview and a private viewing of the film. Now she has staff saying false protrayal. She could have had input but Decline. Now she is going to play the role of Drama Queen and Victim. Let's not forget that this information came from insiders. Did they all decide to just go Rogue on her? She herself seem to enjoyed her image as being Rogue and thought it was cute. Not cute any more is it Sarah? Mega McCain said practically every day there was some Drama with Sarah that she created herself. It appears as though Sarah thrives on Drama that she creates. Maybe she should get serious and take look at why she must creates so much Drama in her life if she does like it. Her poor kids and family. I wonder if they are tired of it and just want a mother.
