Just two days after an audio recording of a fight involving the Palin family began circulating, Bristol Palin has explained her side of the story, defending her family on what happened. Palin wrote on the website Patheos about the altercation that broke out on Sept. 6 at a neighborhood party in Alaska.

"Instead of listening to all the people who weren't there ... let me tell you what actually happened," she said in the post.

Sarah Palin's eldest daughter pointed the finger at liberal media bias for inaccurate and unfair coverage of the incident. She also said the fight was not her family's, who were only responding to people who were only there to "get famous."

Palin wrote that the physical fighting started when a "friend got knocked out from a cheap shot from behind." At that point, Bristol's younger sister, 20-year-old Willow, told the man's mother to "get ahold of your son."

"But apparently the apple didn't fall too far from the tree because his mom pushed Willow," Bristol said. "A grown woman pushed my little sister."

Bristol said her response was to come to her sister's defense, but before she could confront the man's mother, another man "got in my face," according to the 24-year-old. He began to shout obscenities and pushed Palin. She claimed she did hit the man in retaliation but not to the extent reported in the media, where numerous sources said she hit a man several times repeatedly.

"He should never have pushed a girl. It didn't phase him," she wrote. "He pushed me down to the ground and kept me there. ... It was scary and awful. He held me down until someone got me out of the situation. That's it -- that's the story. I didn't 'swing and hit him seven times with a strong right hook' as so many so-called news stories have reported."

Palin then turned the focus back to the media's inconsistent portrayal of her and her family. She claimed other famous Democrat families have had public scandals, but their stories are largely swept under the rug. She cited Joe Biden's son being discharged from the Navy for drug use or Chelsea Clinton's father-in-law being a convicted felon as instances that largely went unheard.
