STORY EXCERPT
Hollywood Reporter: MSNBC VP of Primetime Programming Bill Wolff maintains that his network covers Palin because she's newsworthy. Period. End of story.

"She's powerful and important, even if all you measure her by is her ability to raise money," he says. "She matters. Her blessing and her endorsement mean something.'

Wolff called it "nonsense" that MSNBC is driven by politics or even profits when it comes to how much airtime it devotes to Palin.

"MSNBC does not have a political agenda. The idea that we're beholden to one side or the other is ridiculous," he says. "And if Sarah Palin is so good for business, why would we want to destroy her? We tell the truth. We hold up a mirror and say, 'This is what's going on.' We're not so crass to think that she's good for business, therefore we'll talk about her."
