278 Days Later, Hillary Gets Is Finally Questioned...About Sexism, Double Standards

[See NewsBusters for more.] After 278 days of dodging reporters and ignoring their questions, Hillary Clinton on Thursday finally submitted to a press conference. One would assume that there would be plenty of tough follow-ups on her e-mail scandal. Yet, that subject never came up. Instead, reporters fed her queries on sexism, double standards against her campaign and the size of her lead. A female reporter noted that the Republican National Committee criticized Clinton for not smiling enough. She sympathetically wondered, “Can you react to that? And also you have suggested that there is a double standard. Do you think that you're treated differently in this race because you're a woman?”
