How dumb does the WaPo think we are?

By Libby

Hot on the heels of an avalanche of outrage from all quarters over this idiotic opinion piece yesterday, the WaPo initially tried to cover its butt by changing the title to something equally stupid. Well, that didn't quell the complaints so their latest tack is to claim it was just a joke. Funny, nobody is laughing yet.

As regular readers know, I'm not one to make a fuss over every subtle sign of sexism, but excusing their promotion of this professional female misogynist as a simple misunderstanding of her intent is more insulting than the original article. This woman has a history of undermining women's rights. She writes this kind of crap all the time and means it and we all know that. The WaPo needs to stop making excuses and take some kind of meaningful action to hold the editor accountable for publishing it.
