Dave Itzkoff ribs Sarah Palin<\/a>, in perfect New York Times style, for a strange complaint made on the program formerly known as The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien. Palin’s version of her criticism of “Family Guy,” which recently featured a Down Syndrome actress doing the voice for a Down Syndrome character whose mother was “the former governor of Alaska”:<\/p>\n

And even then, the paper got no response from Palin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
