Gallup looked at whether the public thinks the media's treatment of Sarah Palin has been fair:

About the same proportion of Americans say media coverage of Palin has been unfairly negative (33%) as say it has been about right (36%). An additional 21% say coverage of her has been unfairly positive.

Gallup found that opinions, not surprisingly, broke down along partisan lines:

A majority of Republicans (54%), compared with only 29% of independents and 18% of Democrats, think Palin is getting a raw deal from the press. Three times as many Democrats as Republicans (34% vs. 11%) think coverage of her has been too positive.
