Bristol Palin is demanding pay stubs to Levi Johnston from CNN, Playgirl, the National Enquirer, Star magazine, and Entertainment Tonight, claiming her baby daddy is falsely crying poverty to duck his responsibility to support their child. Johnston has argued in a court battle over child support payments that he can't afford $1,700 a month in payments for their out-of-wedlock son, Tripp. Sure, he made $100,000 last year, but only raked in $10,000 a year before that, Johnston is claiming. Bristol believes he has collected far more, and has subpoenaed the pay records to prove it.
