Two TV journalists are to write a book about their experiences behind the scenes of Sarah Palin's campaign to become vice-president under John McCain.
CBS News' Scott F Conroy and Fox News' Shushannah Walshe have been signed up by Perseus imprint PublicAffairs for the tentatively-titled volume Sarah from Alaska.
Website Politico quoted Conroy saying: "While we're obviously going to use our experiences on the trail to report a lot of new information on how the Palin campaign was run, the book is also going to be forward-looking. There's a long list of unsuccessful VP nominees who've faded into obscurity, but what we think is so interesting about Palin is that even in defeat, she was able to win the hearts of the GOP base, and love her or hate her, she'll be back on the national scene."
