Alaska Mag Scores With Sarah Palin Cover

When John McCain picked a certain vice presidential candidate out of the blue, Alaska garnered some unlikely attention because of its cover subject last February: Governor Sarah Palin.

The MPA’s latest newsletter has a four questions feature with editor-in-chief Andy Hall (Editor’s note: actually eight questions) in which he discusses the controversial decision to put Palin on the cover, why ABC News and 60 Minutes have come calling for back issues, and how it became the mag’s best-selling issue of all-time.
