Debuting as a Fox News analyst, the former Alaska governor was the guest of Bill O'Reilly on Tuesday's edition of "The O'Reilly Factor."

During the interview, Palin said sinking approval numbers for President Barack Obama reflect "an uncomfortableness" some Americans feel toward his administration.

She told O'Reilly she hadn't seen a recent "60 Minutes" report about her, explaining she was warned it contained "a bunch of b.s."

O'Reilly invited her back any time she wants to set the record straight.

Palin's multiyear deal with the network was announced Monday.
