Sarah Palin sees a connection between Lena Dunham‘s admitted sexual experimentation with her sister and Josh Duggar‘s child molestation scandal, and ranted about it on Facebook.
Palin’s aggressive post that calls out Dunham begins with an all-caps passage that ends with, “You pedophile, you.”
“HEY LENA, WHY NOT LAUGH OFF EVERYONE’S SEXUAL “EXPERIMENTS” AS YOU HAUGHTILY ENJOY REWARDS FOR YOUR OWN PERVERSION? YOU PEDOPHILE, YOU,” Palin wrote.
Palin, ever on the attack against the “liberal media,” chastised the coverage of the 19 Kids & Counting family after reports revealed that Josh had molested four of his sisters and a babysitter as a young teen. According to Palin, the media was far more lenient in its coverage of Dunham’s behavior than it has been about Josh’s.
“The intolerant left’s destructive personal intrusions and narrow-mindedness applied to their chosen targets are bad enough, but their double standards are beyond the pale,” wrote Palin. “Case in point, they suggest Lena Dunham’s sexual assault on her sibling is cute, and she’s rewarded for it with fame and fortune. Meanwhile, they crucify another, along with an entire family.”
Palin, while acknowledging that what Josh did was wrong, believes that his family is suffering from the same “liberal media” bias she has been charging against throughout her career in politics. The Duggar scandal’s coverage, to Palin, has become a liberal-conservative, blue-red issue.
“I hate for anyone to go through this game liberals are allowed to play, relentlessly attacking on an uneven playing field until a conservative’s career, relationships, and reputation are destroyed,” wrote Palin. “To the media’s targets I encourage, “Rise above by never claiming ‘victim’, tell the truth, and keep the faith!”
The former vice presidential candidate’s daughter Bristol Palin is in complete agreement of her view on the matter.
“I can’t believe how crazy the media is going over the Duggar family compared to the big fat yawn they gave Lena Dunham when she wrote in her book that she sexually experimented with her sister,” Bristol wrote on her blog. The liberal media darling Dunham was praised for her “honest and witty” book. The double standards make me sick. Josh Duggar touched a sleeping girls breast – a terrible thing to go. But now their ENTIRE family is punished and their hit show is canceled? He’s labeled as a pedophile? His family is crucified!”
Back in the fall, an excerpt from Dunham’s memoir Not That Kind of Girl recounted the writer and actor’s sexual experimentation with her younger sister in which she admitted she acted like a “sexual predator” at age 7.
In his early teens, Josh Duggar admitted multiple times to his parents that he had inappropriately touched his younger sisters before he was sent away for counseling.
