Lauren Caitlin Upton’s response:

She tried to do some damge control on NBC’s “Today” show;

“I would love to re-answer that question,” Upton said. “Well personally, my friends and I, we know exactly where the United States is on our map. I don’t know anyone else who doesn’t. And if the statistics are correct, I believe there should be more emphasis on geography.”
