The former governor uploaded a video on the sarahpalinchannel.com where she talked about building a subscription-based website in which people can talk to her directly.

"I want to talk directly to you on our channel on my terms and no need to please the powers that be," Palin promised and added that the new community will cut through mainstream media's filter and politically correctness.

Palin said the soon-to-be launched channel is meant to be shared as many vierwers as possible.

"[The channel is meant] for you and for me, and we'll all get to call it like it is," she said in the video.

Included in the channel are videos of Palin pushing for President Barack Obama's impeachment and her criticism of the incumbent president's alleged addiction to "other people's money" or as she terms it, "OPM."

According to Palin, the site will also feature her daughter Bristol's blog. Bristol will write and update the blog that would include a countdown of Obama's remaining time in the White house.

Palin will be the executive editor of the site and will oversee all of its content.

The channel is said to be part of the TAPP network.

TAPP, whose co-founders are former NBC chairman Jeff Gaspin and former CNN President Jon Klein, is a network of online video channels owned by public personalities with large followings.
