JUNEAU, Alaska — Sarah Palin is lashing out at the Fox animated comedy “Family Guy.” In a Facebook posting, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee and current Fox News contributor said Sunday night’s episode felt like “another kick in the gut.”

The episode features the character Chris falling for a girl with Down syndrome. On a date, he asks what her parents do. She replies: “My dad’s an accountant, and my mom is the former governor of Alaska.” Palin’s youngest son, Trig, has Down syndrome.

Palin’s oldest daughter, Bristol, also was quoted on her mother’s Facebook page, calling the show’s writers “heartless jerks.”
