LL Cool J x Sarah Palin: Real American Stories. I think this already made the major press but for those of you who don’t read mainstream news, LL Cool J was surprised to see he was going to be interviewed for an upcoming Sarah Palin TV show called “Real American Stories.”

Event though LL saw the ads running, he actually never was interviewed or agreed to do the interview. Instead the network took an old interview from 2008 and put it in their current TV ad shown here.

“Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palins Show. WOW.”

You would think the producers of the show would kinda run this stuff by the people they hope to interview. Regardless a public statement has been made that LL will no longer be part of the show…ehh…that’s because he never was to begin with.
