Hillary Clinton spoke to The Washington Post about sexism in the 2008 presidential campaign.
“The manifestation of some of the sexism that has gone on in this campaign is somehow more respectable, or at least more accepted, and . . . there should be equal rejection of the sexism and the racism when it raises its ugly head,” she said. “It does seem as though the press at least is not as bothered by the incredible vitriol that has been engendered by the comments by people who are nothing but misogynists.”
Is the sexism in the media coverage related to the lack of women in executive positions in the newsroom?
