Sarah Palin having trouble selling new reality show idea

http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-12-12/entertainment/30507043_1_todd-palin-palin-family-bristol-palin#ixzz1gS2y6500

The Hollywood Reporter just broke the story that Sarah Palin is shopping a new reality show concept to television networks.

The new conceit: Todd Palin's adventures on a snowmobile. (Reminder: Todd Palin is an adult.)
