==Attacks on Sarah Palin==

True to his [[liberal]] nature, Letterman has repeatedly mocked Alaska's conservative, former Republican governor, [[Sarah Palin]], since she came into the public eye as a 2008 vice-presidential candidate. In June 2009, while Palin was attending a benefit for those with autism in Westchester, New York, Letterman escalated these attacks in a particularly degrading fashion, describing Palin as having a "slutty flight attendant" look and claiming that her fourteen-year-old daughter was "knocked up" at a NY Yankees baseball game.<ref>http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1832149/letterman_palin_has_slutty_flight_attendant.html?cPager=2</ref>  Although Letterman has since claimed that he meant to insult and demean her eighteen-year-old sister, Bristol, instead, observers have pointed out that Bristol wasn't at the baseball game in question, giving lie to this claim.
