Hillary: A Heroine for Women, Taken Down By Male-Dominated Media
This is a great article that takes a look at the male dominated media and how it was biased toward Hillary Clinton. It is this sexual discrimination that has partially inspired so many to join the P.U.M.A. movement and to Just Say No Deal.
Hillary: A Heroine for Women, Taken Down By Male-Dominated MediaDid gender bias doom Hillary Clinton’s “female assault on the pinnacle of American male power” from the start? According to this article from China’s state-controlled People’s Daily, Hillary is a modern feminist hero defeated by both the age-old bias against ‘the second sex’ and ‘radical feminists.’ The author Wang Tian writes:
“Looking at how newspapers and TV networks commented on Hillary’s looks, her voice and her emotional life, we can see the kind of criticism and humiliation she has suffered. ‘Hating Hillary’ has even become a kind of national sport or entertainment. … The path of her struggle in seeking to make a breakthrough may not have met with the approval of all women. But in her own words, the 18 million voters who supported her have made “18 million cracks in the glass ceiling.”
