This just in at former Alaska governor Sarah Palin's Facebook account:

As you probably have heard, the AP snagged a copy of my memoir, Going Rogue, before its Tuesday release. And as is expected, the AP and a number of subsequent media outlets are erroneously reporting the contents of the book. Keep your powder dry, read the book, and enjoy it! Lots of great stories about my family, Alaska, and the incredible honor it was to run alongside Senator John McCain.

One of the USA TODAY outlets I used to work for, On Politics, blogged yesterday about the Associated Press and its reporting — including at least one mistake — about what is in the book (which is due for release on Tuesday).

Initially, AP said Palin wrote about being billed $500,000 to pay for the "vetting" done by GOP presidential nominee John McCain's campaign before she was picked to be his running mate. Later, AP changed its story to say that the vetting represented about one-tenth of the $500,000 in legal bills she ran up because of "frivolous ethics complaints."

Trevor Potter, who was a lawyer for the McCain-Palin campaign, told On Politics that as far as he knows "the campaign did not receive any bill from Gov. Palin for legal expenses connected to her vetting, nor did the campaign ask her to pay any vetting-related expenses."

As The Washington Post writes today, all of this is pretty standard stuff when it comes to selling books:

The rollout for former Alaska governor Sarah Palin's highly anticipated and score-settling memoir began Thursday with all the orchestrated stagecraft, wild accusations, inconvenient leaks and media fascination that characterized her campaign as Sen. John McCain's running mate during the 2008 presidential race.

Palin's already taped her sit-down with Oprah Winfrey, which is set to air on the media queen's show Monday. Oprah's put some clip from the appearance online here.
