fox news would NEVER be able to do (to hillary or warren, for exmaple) what SNL and the Daily Show did to Sarah Palin


Only Nixon could go to China.

If the group in question views you as right on their issues, you're not going to be bashed for attacking a member of that group who opposes the beliefs held by the majority of said group. That's really not that hard of a concept. Now I don't think someone on Fox bashing Hillary is necessarily being sexist, but I don't think it's that weird that a woman would look at that, a channel that perpetuates the right wing's war on her gender, with some suspicion as to their motives.

the palin treatment wasn't even about her political views, so that argument doesn't really apply

she was called a dumb count for years and years and those who did it were given a pass. you criticize a hillary or warren for legitimate gaffes, without the insults, and it's misogyny! this isn't even about views, it's just a double standard based in "libprog smart, everyone else stupid" analysis
