Aaron Sorkin Vs. Sarah Palin–Palin Fires Back Over Caribou Killing
Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, December 9th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Authors, Directors and Producers, Food & Drink, Politicians.
Aaron Sorkin, writer and producer with credits like “The West Wing” and “A Few Good Men” under his belt, wrote an editorial in the Huffington Post decrying Sarah Palin‘s caribou killing on her TLC show “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.”
Sorkin, a meat eater, said there’s a difference between killing animals for food and doing so for sport, which he accused Palin of doing. Palin has since fired back in an email to the Associated Press.
“I’m able to make a distinction between you and me without feeling the least bit hypocritical. I don’t watch snuff films and you make them. You weren’t killing that animal for food or shelter or even fashion, you were killing it for fun. You enjoy killing animals. I can make the distinction between the two of us but I’ve tried and tried and for the life of me, I can’t make a distinction between what you get paid to do and what Michael Vick went to prison for doing. I’m able to make the distinction with no pangs of hypocrisy even though I get happy every time one of you faux-macho shitheads accidentally shoots another one of you in the face.”
