Washington, Apr 6 (ANI): In her new book Bossypants, Tina Fey says that her Emmy-winning impersonation of Sarah Palin may have hurt ratings for her NBC sitcom ‘30 Rock’.
The comedian and actress says in the book that the impression did not bring positive attention to the show, which also stars Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan, but instead may have polarized audiences.
“Some may argue that exploiting Governor Palin and her family helped bring attention to my low-rated TV show,” Fox News quoted an excerpt of the book posted on USA Today.
“I am proud to say you are wrong.
“My TV show still enjoys very low ratings. In fact, I think the Palin stuff may have hurt the TV show. Let’s face it, between Alec Baldwin and me there is a certain fifty percent of the population who think we are pinko Commie monsters,” she adds. (ANI)
