Palin to join Beck at Anchorage 9/11 event
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are teaming up again, this time in Alaska on the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
But unlike their free August rally at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., Saturday’s event at an Anchorage convention center will come with a pricetag.
Tickets range from $73.75 to $225, with the priciest tickets including a “meet and greet.” Organizers say most of the 4,500 tickets have been sold.
Event promoter Christopher Cox says the 9/11 date is a coincidence. Cox originally eyed Sept. 4, but didn’t want to compete with the Alaska State Fair.
Cox says Beck will be introduced by Palin, a potential 2012 White House contender who hasn’t announced her political intentions. Palin spokesman Doug McMarlin didn’t immediately return requests for comment.
