⚫ | * ''[[Real American Stories]]'' is probably the best known appearance Palin has in media that doesn't involve her being used as the clear butt of a joke. [[Irony|Ironically]], it's also fairly [[So Okay It's Average|average]], with Palin only providing opening narration for stories that FOX already had kicking around the video archives for the past two years. Once people watching the show realized Palin's presence as host didn't automatically make it [[So Bad It's Good]], most stopped paying attention. |

* Palin's most popular appearance in media is the aforementioned ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' sketch (seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE2gE-VVjBI here]).

⚫ | * In an episode of ''[[Family Guy]]'', Chris dates a girl with Down Syndrome who briefly makes reference to her mother being the former governor of Alaska. Notable largely because when Palin herself found about this, she indignantly called it a "kick in the gut" to families with Down Syndrome in general, claiming it to be [[Dude, Not Funny]] material, and then tried to claim that she was defending the Down Syndromed actress who read the line. The actress who played the character, who is in her forties, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhMSA6Chiag was nonplussed about this criticism], telling Palin to "get a sense of humor," and claimed she [[Don't You Dare Pity Me!|didn't need anyone to stand up for her grown-ass self]]. |
