Liberals Attack Sarah Palin After This Extremely Scandalous Photo Shoot Hits The Public [SEE PHOTOS] Two years ago, Newsweek sparked controversy when they featured a cover photo of Sarah Palin running in shorts with an American flag. The photo was originally taken for Runners World magazine, in an article that commented on Palins toned physique. The use of the picture sparked a debate about sexism: would America ever see story with a male candidate running in shorts or a bathing suit? Palin herself called Newsweek sexist and claimed that the media outlet would do anything to draw attention. Now, Palin is on the cover once again, after granting an exclusive interview to Peter Boyer. She also posed for a series of photographs that dont seem to stand behind her original thoughts.

They dont necessarily want to envision them in the pages of Esquire magazines Sexiest Woman Alive 2011 or Maxim. What do you think? Has Sarah Palin been highly sexualized in the media?
