Liberals Complain About Palin Event

I find this criticism to be laughable.

But Palin appears to be doing her best to keep a low profile on this trip: no press will be allowed into the Milwaukee auditorium where she will speak and those who have paid the $30 admittance fee are unable to carry in cell phones, cameras, laptops, or recording devices of any kind.

Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate told the Wisconsin Radio Network he finds all these restrictions “bizarre.”

“You know, for someone who claims to be a rogue and isn’t afraid of what other people think it really is sort of hypocritical to not let the media, the press cover your event.”

She is a private citizen speaking at a private event.  She has absolutely no obligation to make it open to the public.  Also, I’m willing to bet that she’s being paid for this engagement.  Many, if not all, paid speakers prohibit recording the speech because it makes it harder to sell the next engagement if everyone can just watch it on YouTube.  Tate sure has a sense of entitlement to other people’s stuff, but that makes sense since he’s never had to earn a living outside of liberal politics.
