Sarah Palin has called Lena Dunham a "paedophile"

Well, this is pretty full-on. Sarah Palin has branded Lena Dunham a “paedophile” over comments made in her book Not That Kind of Girl last year.

Lena’s book, which was released in 2014, featured a passage about how, aged 7, she had looked at her sister’s vagina, curious to see if it looked the same as hers.

Sarah has now compared this controversial extract to the current media storm surrounding reality TV star Josh Duggar, who appeared with his family on a US show called 19 Kids And Counting.

Josh, now 27, has hit headlines across America recently, amidst accusations that as a teenager, he molested his younger siblings by touching them on their breasts and genitals.
