Mea Culpa

" That is trying to put -- the firestorm over his jokes about Sarah Palin's teenage daughter getting. Knocked up by Yankee Alex Rodriguez. On his show last night the comedian chalked it all up to a misunderstanding. Saying he meant to refer to governor Palin's eighteen year old daughter Bristol. Not to her fourteen year old daughter willow."

" still and I'm wondering what can I do. To help people understand that they would never make a jewel like this I've never made jokes like this as long as we've been on the air their dirty. Long years and and you can't really be doing jokes like that. And I understand of course what people are upset I would be upset myself now I'm beginning to understand what the problem is here it's the perception. Rather than the intent that negative what my intent was it's the perception. And as they say about jokes that if you have to explain the joke. It's not a very good joke my responsibility I take full blame for that I told a bad joke and told a joke that was beyond a flawed. And my intent. Is completely meaningless compared it to the perception. And and since it it was a joke I told I feel that I need to do the right thing here and apologize. For having told that joke is not your fault that it was misunderstood. It's my fault that it was misunderstood. I would like to apologize. Especially to the two daughters is involved. Bristol and willow. And also to the governor and her family and everybody else who was outraged by the joke. I'm sorry about it and all try to do better in the future thanks."

" So wasn't enough Andrea and her bosses at foxnews.com contributor and Republican strategist she's my guess now I Andrea and I and while he went on and on. Four minutes and on and on and on getting it done. Well -- it took him two times to get it right because the first one really wasn't sincere and listen you know my mom always says I'm sorry with a butt attached negates the apology hit a lot of explaining it shouldn't just that a flat -- it was offensive ansari. And he didn't apologize for the flooding flight attendant joke which was also very distasteful and you know. This is not funny. And until week we stop these comedians these brands like Playboy. For their top ten conservative hate list until we stop in this USA organization until we stop late night TV mainstream brands from this misogyny against women which seems to be making a comeback. -- to -- going to come apart the scenes because it is it just inappropriate it general misogyny Andrea are really isn't misogyny targeted at conservative women that we're seeing more and more -- you know what's funny is the last always -- to own domestic violence of the violence against women issued this and it is our issue we passed the bill through congress. Now it just seems acceptable to conservative women have a big bullseye on us and they can -- dress and an eagle after me all the time they go after use a big billion was conservative. It's just wrong and the winner of the women's groups now being international organizations of women to come and speak out if it's isn't great -- and."

" Now sort of -- a half hearted this was not good of Letterman in response to this but they refused to come -- Greta Van -- ask for them to go on her show they refused they were not so vocal about it I'm afraid we're vocalist tankers on either do you think it would have been different had the target Ben. Somebody like Hillary Clinton right."

" Absolutely there's always double standard when it comes to liberal versus conservative women -- the ended the -- I -- this isn't a political issue this is a women's issue it's a human decency issue when you're insulting. Young girls underage girls women and you're just and it hit a full day of tasteful way and that's exactly what David Letterman to."

" On speaking of that -- visit the text of his apology is essentially a mentor for the older daughter not to younger -- and I chided Biden looked at I was researching -- at any noted the fourteen year old was with her at Yankee game I thought it was the eighteen year old -- Does that excuse it is it okay to make fun of the eighteen year old daughter allegedly getting quote knocked up by Alex Alex Rodriguez a Yankee game."

" The group pay ailing grandmother -- it's still just inappropriate and a joke writer for a hundred jokes per writer per evening for David Letterman he clearly thought was funny. He wouldn't set -- unless he thought it would have killed. And the only reason he gave his second apology is because people started pulling their sponsorship which means the bottom line is money for them when you look at every instance -- Donald Trump. Did he actually chastised pray -- he invited they got back to be judged not."

" Yeah stuck with a problem with that miss USA competition. -- By joy -- are of the view who last week. Came out and ripped on the Palin family and all the women in the Palin family saying they -- the daughter out there are some service spokesperson. And then she reversed herself yesterday take a look at the split between what she set."

" Strength training and Kidd added she's a walking -- they have an agent and she gets knocked up that's the job I I have to say I'm that. I'm on her side this time not because I didn't think it was sort of OK because comedians make jokes but. As a parent as a mother she is now -- she's gone for the jugular and I would tell I would tell as some of that. Is."

" I don't think he should be fired but listen here's the bottom line there is the First Amendment and there is free speech right but as consumers as citizens we have to buy the stuff. Pun intended we don't have to watch their shows we don't have to watch the miss USA pageant we don't have to -- played like we don't have to support these shows are like the -- any of them if we don't want to put these protests in New York today they should still happen because the issue is much bigger and that and it's a growing trend against conservative women are. Anderson has always a pleasure thank you make that much for being asked him why you guys are talking foxnews.com. Apparently got a statement from Sarah Palin. She says."

" She accepts the apology. And says of course it's except an on behalf of young women like my daughters. Who've helped mend. Who joke about public displays of X sexual exploitation of girls will soon evolve that is part of the statement is available our website right now. Foxnews.com.
