Bristol Palin took to her blog on Tuesday to respond to Mike Huckabee saying she stood him up on his radio show and as a result is "fair game."
The daughter of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin said she was at her brother Track's house for his last night at home before deploying to Afghanistan.
"I understand Gov. Huckabee has a huge challenge creating a radio show he wants as the alternative to Rush Limbaugh," Palin wrote. "I understand he wants to fill his show with a little controversy – and what better way than to create headlines telling the world he now considers me 'fair game.'"
She continued, "However, does he really believe I don't understand what it's like to be 'fair game?' Anyone who's seen this blog -- or the newspapers or the television -- knows I've been through quite a bit of media speculation, ridicule, scorn. I’ve been writing about my own political ideas and have been 'fair game' in my comments sections. I've also defended myself from vile comments from leftists like Bill Maher. Is Mike Huckabee joining into that scorn supposed to intimidate me?"
Palin included audio of the comments from Huckabee in question and added, "You’ve got to actually listen to it, to get the full effect of his scolding tone."
Huckabee addressed the canceled radio show segment on Facebook on Tuesday night. He wrote, "Contrary to what's been reported our producer has a long email thread going back months with Ms. Palin's publicist at Lifetime (including a confirmation email prior to the interview). Our producer thought we were doing her a favor by promoting her show. No good deed goes unpunished!"
Palin's new reality show "Life's A Tripp" premiered on Lifetime on Tuesday night.
