From The People's Cube:
NY Times, 2009:
In early June, David Letterman joked: “Sarah Palin went to a Yankees game yesterday. There was one awkward moment during the seventh-inning stretch: her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.” Palin was outraged, claiming her 14-year-old daughter, Willow, had been slurred. Letterman explained that he was referring to Bristol Palin: 18, unwed, and a mother. He declined to apologize but said ruefully, “There are thousands of jokes I regret telling.” Sarah Palin, unappeased, called the joke “disgusting.” On June 16, he apologized on the show, mollifying Palin but not the demonstrators outside his studio. They demanded that he be fired. Should he be?
