An A-list of women in politics went on the offensive Wednesday [09-03-08], accusing the media and the Obama campaign of blatant sexism in their treatment of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
McCain’s running mate, who greeted the Arizona senator as he arrived in St. Paul, is scheduled to headline the convention Wednesday night.
Five Conservative women censured the media Wednesday at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, saying they were outraged and insulted by Palin’s treatment and comparing it to the way Hillary Clinton was treated during the Democratic primary.
“The Republican Party will not stand by while Sarah Palin is subjected to sexist attacks,” said top McCain adviser Carly Fiorina, defending Palin as qualified and declaring women would not “stand for it” when she is subjected to such attacks. “As women, I think all of us are sensitized and outraged when we see sexist treatment.”
Former U.S. Treasurer Rosario Marin said she was “incensed” by the coverage of Palin.
“Governor Palin has a record of achievement,” said former Massachusetts Gov. Jane Swift. “She is more prepared than Barack Obama to be president of the United States.”
The speakers made reference to several reports in recent days, including the cover of US Weekly that shows a picture of Palin and her baby with the words “babies, lies and scandal.”

lets get one thing …
lets get one thing straight…every news station out there is pretty much extremely liberal, except for fox which is uber conservative, so you never get the unbiased media reports that they tell you they give you!
Obama… Empty …
Obama… Empty words… That pretty much sums up what Obama’s been doing since he got “elected” by people with beans for brains.
It’s not about fair …
It’s not about fair. It’s the way it is, but don’t act like there are no conservative outlets. MSNBC doesn’t say they’re fair and balanced, Fox does and that’s what bothers me. Not one show is hosted by a liberal. Don’t tell me you’re fair and balanced.
and I don’t even think CNN is liberal. The only one who seems to have a strong opinion on that network is Lou Dobbs and he’s hardly a leftist.
AM radio and one …
AM radio and one news network against MSNBC, CNN, NY Times, FM radio, and a majority of colleges and Universities. seems fair i guess
There is. The fact …
There is. The fact that you say it is “Faux” news shows that you only know how to parrot what MSNBC tells you to believe
It’s the primary …
It’s the primary function of the mass media in the US to mobilize public support for special interests that dominate the government & the private sector.
To eliminate confusion, all of this has nothing to do with liberal or conservative bias. According to the propaganda model, both liberal and conservative wings of the media — whatever those terms are supposed to mean — fall within the same framework of umptions.
actually GE is the …
actually GE is the largest owner of carbon credits in the world so it is in their financial interest to advance green policies…. policies mostly supported by the left.
it appears GE’s support of the liberal agenda is purely driven by the bottom line, not a political ideology
It’s funny how …
It’s funny how conservatives don’t consider Fox News or talk radio part of “the media”.
Liberals liberals …
Liberals liberals liberals burn the witches joe mccarthy liberals are taking your hard earned tax dollars and giving them to lazy, homeless negroes so they can gets there vote for Barrack Hussein Ubama. Liberals- A Southern Baptist Preacher w/ jowls like a turkey. Buy your son 80 pounds of Chinese plastic to show you love him. Jesus would do it.
Yeah drugs are so …
Yeah drugs are so horrible! GOD! KIDS ARE SO INNOCENT THEY CAN’T BE EXPOSED TO ANYTHING EVER! JESUS NEEDS TO BE EVERYWHERE! WHY ISN’T HE ON OUR MONEY YET?!
How in the WORLD …
How in the WORLD does NBC benefit from pushing an overtly “leftist agenda?” I’d just love to know that.
Who owns NBC? General Electric.
Is it in the best interest of General Electric to put forward a leftist agneda, or is it RATHER in General Electric’s best interest for everyone to think that the mainstream media is entirely leftist in order to get people to “rebel” by calling for more conservativism in general?
I stand by my …
I stand by my previous words.
Liberal…I do not …
Liberal…I do not think this word means what you think it means.
FAUX News is …
FAUX News is claiming there’s a liberal bias! he,he,he.
I really despise …
I really despise liberals
The media is so onesided its not funny it really isnt.But then again when radical leftwing facist are the base of the Democratic party its ridiculous
from what ive gathered the left thinks its ok too do the following:
Rehabilitate Pedophiles
Sexualize children
Support Nambla
Supporting of Legal drug use
Abolish all Holidays
This is a disturbing fact of life
and it bothers me all i can say is god help us with Barack “Hussien” Obama
Okay, now finish …
Okay, now finish the thought and do a video erting that the conservative media is unbiased.
Because, if you’re unbiased, you can’t.
No media outlet will EVER be as in the tank for a Democrat as the conservative media was in the tank for McCain.
And this despite the fact that an aging John McCain spent the entire campaign throwing his own campaign under the bus.
Bill Kristol was actually right: John McCain should have fired his entire campaign staff and started over.
Yes yes, someone …
Yes yes, someone should take controle of the media the way they do in North Korea and Iran. So that fox news and MSNBC should be forced to be “balanced”. And the decision for that should be made by judges legislating from the bench. Because republicans are so in loved with how well the government controles things.
Don’t you mean the …
Don’t you mean the media has spoken? I don’t care that Obama was elected. The way the media went about getting him there was WRONG!!! Someone should look into how the media is controlling everything.
JUST GO AWAY …
JUST GO AWAY ALREADY!!!! YOU WERE NOT QUALIFIED THAN OR NOW!! PLEASE SHUT THE UP AND GO AWAY!!! THIS COUNTRY HAS SPOKEN AND PRESIDENT OBAMA IS DOING MORE THAN THE CURRENT SITTING PRESIDENT HAS DONE IN YEARS AND HE HAS NOT EVEN BEEN SWORN INTO OFFICE! REPUBLICANS NEED TO GET THE AWAY FROM THIS LADY SHE IS A DISTRACTION AS WELL AS A JOKE!! NEITHER HER OR McBUSH WERE GOOD FOR THIS COUNTRY AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WERE SMART ENOUGH TO SEND THEM HOME SO PLEASE JUST GO AWAY! FAR FAR AWAY!!!!!
So showing us a …
So showing us a couple minutes of FOX News commenting on their commercial competitors’ bias and a couple of McCain ads is supposed to show liberal bias? I guess watching too much FOX has tainted your ability to recognize journalism.
Epic Fail.
too bad sarah palin …
too bad sarah palin was a dumb with meth addict friends and thought africa was a country and has never read a news paper. and screamed sexism but its funny because when hilary clinton ran aparently it wasnt an issue
One important point …
One important point:
When Obama was campaigning and spoke about McCain, the first thing he did is tell everyone he has the utmost respect for McCain’s service to his nation and all he’s been through.
There’s people …
There’s people living in the Amazon jungle that have never seen civilization that know that John McCain was a POW.
i like that last …
i like that last Mcain ad with the homes he should of ran that more, but he got shot down and was a hostage thats different than winning battles or being a general now if he had his dad or grandad resume then he would have had a better shot they probaly woulldve won
The woman didn’t …
The woman didn’t know that Africa was a continent! She’s clearly an idiot.
