Members of the media were shocked as he was supposedly revealed as incredibly anti-woman
presidential candidate, perhaps even the most ever nominated by a major
political party in the modern era. He had admitted that he reduced
women to objects and the Democrats pounced, seeking to make him lose him
the support of women and, in turn, the presidency.
I'm not
talking about the media coverage of GOP presidential candidate Donald
Trump and the "Access Hollywood" tape, but his predecessor, Mitt Romney.
His sin? Saying that he had “binders full of women”
that he was looking at appointing to key positions were he elected
president. Sure, it was an awkward way of stating a fairly innocuous
fact about how elected executives begin their transition efforts — with
resumes of candidates for every position under the sun —- well before an
election is held. Yet, the media and commentators came for Mitt Romney
and they did so with guns blazing, as he was portrayed as an anti-woman
extremist... for making a concerted effort to hire women to serve in his
administration as governor of Massachusetts.
The entire ordeal is part of an ever-growing list of examples in which
the media seemed to be biased, whether consciously or not, against
Republicans.
