Well, now that Rick Santorum is a contender/frontrunner, we can expect to see a lot more of this type of media hackery.
NBC’s David Gregory repeatedly and knowingly mis-characterizes a quote from Santorum’s book in which Santorum says radical feminists have undermined the family by suggesting that the only real choice is the choice to work and that staying home is not respected. Gregory purposely twists this to suggest that Santorum is saying women shouldn’t work. He even goes so far as to ridiculously ask Santorum, even after Santorum explained his statement, whether he would allow married women to work in his administration.
This is the kind of ridiculous hit piece that we all should expect now that Santorum is in the mix. Santorum clearly expected it because he handled it beautifully, smiling and explaining.
Good job Rick. David Gregory is a hack.
