Leaving Aside For the Moment That the Press Couldn’t Report Accurately on a 30 Second Ad…
…Does this new outrage mean that feminists don’t think women should be allowed to play football?
NOW president Terry O’Neill said it glorified violence against women. “I am blown away at the celebration of the violence against women in it,” she said. “That’s what comes across to me even more strongly than the anti-abortion message. I myself am a survivor of domestic violence, and I don’t find it charming. I think CBS should be ashamed of itself.”
And I take it that can also be taken to mean that women shouldn’t play any contact sports. Or ski jump!
