 * General
 * There is only one image in the article. More should be added. (A image of Palin shouldn't be too hard to find)
 * The lead is not big enough. It should summarise the whole article. And should not mention anything you do not mention in the text. Thus references is not needed in the lead.
 * Using external links in the text is normally frowned upon (e.g. Walter Cronkite Award for Journalism Excellence)
 * Can we use the that many quotes without getting any copyright problems?
 * Generally I feel the article has a bit too many quotes. Try turning some of them into prose and describe instead.
 * In Origins there should be a bit more lengthy introduction to who Palin and Couric are.
 * Try to avoid vague terms of size such as "all", "several" and "many". Specify instead.
 * Ref 8 is dead.
