A Peek At Sarah Palin’s Net Worth Amid Daughter Bristol Palin’s Criticisms On ESPN Hosts After Laughing When Mike Tyson’s Joked On Her Mom Being Raped In 2011


Sarah Palin, who has an estimated net worth of $12 million, is currently making headlines after he interviewed real estate mogul Donald Trump on Aug. 28. On her show, "On Point," which airs on the cable news network One America News, Palin grilled the outspoken 2016 presidential hopeful with several soft questions.

Former Alaskan governor with a net worth of $12 million, Sarah Palin was a vice president hopeful of the 2008 Republican ticket. But on Friday, the 51-year politician and commentator interviewed the highly controversial GOP 2016 frontrunner Donald Trump. According to CNN, Trump became quite reserved in his responses to Palin's inquiries.

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin, whose net worth is $12 million as The Richest listed, became one of the most talked-about political personalities in 2008 after presidential candidate John McCain chose her as his running mate. Since then, she was always on the national political spotlight.

Aside from attributing Sarah Palin's net worth to her being a politician, she was also an author and wrote her own book, "Going Rogue: An American Life," an autobiography published by Harper Collins in November 2010. Celebrity Net Worth noted that Palin's book sold over a million copies within two weeks after hitting the shelves.

Since quitting her governorship in 2009, political followers have raved about Sarah Palin's net worth and other reported earnings. At that time, Forbes reported that Palin was cashing from $125,000 annually to an estimated $12 million, citing her $7 million bestselling autobiography, her own The Learning Channel television deal worth $2 million and her multi-year contract with FOX News with a $1 million salary contract.

While Sarah Palin is stirring up some buzz, her pregnant daughter Bristol is also making some noise online especially when she slammed ESPN for alleged double standards in her recent blog post. Bristol criticized the hosts of the radio show, "Gridlock" on ESPN's Las Vegas affiliate KWWN, for laughing hysterically when Mike Tyson joked about her mom being raped in 2011. The transcript of the interview was quoted in sistertoldjah.com.

"Hey ESPN, double standards much?" Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol wrote. "After suspending Curt Schilling for tweeting the truth about Islam, they showed they can't associate with people who hold views incompatible with their liberal views. But "Sister Toldjah" in 2011 reported on how ESPN was just fine with their radio host joking about my mom being raped."

"So, which is it, ESPN?" she added. "Are you now going to be water carrier for the Democratic Party? If so, should we assume you're totally fine with a rapist joking about my mom being raped?"

In other news, Bristol Palin recently shared an adorable photo of her 6-year-old son Tripp on Instagram. Bristol, who's currently pregnant with her second child, posted a sweet snapshot on Friday, where she was seen hugging her son, as per Celebrity Baby Scoop. On that same day, her mom Sarah Palin, whose net worth is $12 million, interviewed Donald Trump.
