Men Will Tell Women What to Do Tomorrow on the Sunday Talk Shows
After a week dominated by Republican men talking about eliminating women’s contraceptive rights, we’re headed into a talk “news” Sunday consisting of men — all of the scheduled guests are men — talking about ah, women’s contraceptive rights: Guest Lineups for the Sunday Talk Shows.
CAN YOU HEAR ME (SCREAMING) NOW?

ESPN Headline re NY Knicks’ Loss: “Chink in the Armor”
ESPN really blew it last night with this headline that went out to its mobile users:
ESPN pulled it and apologized:
Last night, ESPN.com’s mobile Web site posted an offensive headline referencing Jeremy Lin at 2:30 am ET. The headline was removed at 3:05 am ET. We are conducting a complete review of our cross-platform editorial procedures and are determining appropriate disciplinary action to ensure this does not happen again. We regret and apologize for this mistake.
I can only imagine the mindset of the person who composed that headline.
Oh, and poor Jeremy Lin. The media has built him up to be super-human and now that incredibly unfair pressure is on him to never, ever fail.
