ReelzChannel Picks Up Sarah Palin Documentary 'The Undefeated,' Sets Bold Premiere Date (VIDEO)

The Sarah Palin documentary titled "The Undefeated" will make its television debut on ReelzChannel next month. ReelzChannel is the same network that picked up "The Kennedys" last year, in which Greg Kinnear and Katie Holmes played the President and First Lady.

The network announced on Tuesday that the documentary, which follows Palin's rise from Alaskan politics to the main stage of the Republican politics will premiere on the same weekend as HBO's film "Game Change." The highly-anticipated HBO movie is based off Mark Halperin and John Heilemann’s book of the same title about the 2008 presidential campaigns, and features actor Julianne Moore as Palin.

ReelzChannel CEO Stan E. Hubbard told the Hollywood Reporter, "Sarah Palin is a charismatic figure who burst onto the political scene, and whatever your leanings, if you have any interest or curiosity in politics, social change or the Sarah Palin phenomenon, this is a must-see movie." "Undefeated" filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon said he was please RealzChannel decided to present the documentary's premiere on the same weekend as what he referred to as "the fictional hit-piece by HBO."

Watch the documentary and then comment. Try to avoid being so influenced by those "I know better than you" comments made by Michael Moore, Bill Maher, Keith Olberman, and the rest of those mental giants on CNN, MSNBC, Fox, ABC, CBS etc. Make up your own mind with some facts, do some research....Stop the spoon feeding media! Best way to judge someone? Look at what they've done, not monkey see, monkey hear, monkey repeat.
What is happening to this country? Oh, right, let's get on the obama wagon and be ashamed to be an American. Not me, thank you. The only thing I'm ashamed of is the last presidential election. But I do have hope.

Jferko, please prove your "theory" about the "destruction" of the US. Troll*

There seems to be a mix up. You appear to be confusing Sarah Palin with a man who calls himself Barack Obama. Pure fiction and you are all falling for and aiding him in the destruction of the United States! Can't understand how you think crippling us is "helping" the U.S.

Shouldn't Lady Blah Blah's movie be titled "Defeated?"

Notice how the film maker just had to get a shot in on HBO, "the fictional hit piece", if there ever was a work of fiction it is in the persona of Sarah Palin.

It's sort of 'fun' to watch a person who has become almost totally insignificant try to remain credible.

Yes, this is the same film that tanked at the box office and tanked with the critics last summer. Standard industry contracts for this type of production slate it for cable several months after the theatrical release.

Calling it "highly-anticipated" looks like a copy/paste from a press release.

Oh, get the Neilson ratings people on this scoop.

HBO (with a great cast) or Reelz (now conservative channels are spelling like rappers?)
