Oliver Wiseman, in an article entitled "Have the Republicans gone too far?,Sarah Palin has a lesson for outrage-hunting politicians", as published in UnHerd's April 7, 2022 edition.

As many have observed, Palin’s rise was an important waypoint on the journey that brought America to the Trump era, and tribute acts like Greene and Cawthorn. By today’s standards, the “going rogue” brand pushed by the no-nonsense hockey mom from Walisa seems positively wholesome. And to revisit the outrage it generated feels a bit like watching those clips of Fifties prudes panicked about the damage Elvis Presley’s gyrating hips might be doing to teenage girls’ minds.
