Politician releases 30 Rock spoof

Tina Fey famously skewered Sarah Palin with her impersonations on Saturday Night Live.

Now the right-wing politician has hit back – with a spoof of Fey's sitcom 30 Rock. And only three years after it was axed.

In the parody trailer, former Republican vice presidential candidate plays television writer Lynn Melon – a heavy-handed take on Fey's Liz Lemon.

The reason for striking back may be the blatant plug for Palin's new book midway through the clip. The Alaskan politician has just published Sweet Freedom: A Devotional, in which she offers 260 meditations based on guiding Biblical verses.
