VIDEO: The Media's Years Of Sexist Attacks On Hillary Clinton

The media has spent years hurling sexist attacks at presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. From attacks on her appearance, her cleavage, her sexuality, her “PMS,” the tone and volume of her voice, her laugh, her emotions, her age, being a grandmother, being called a “bitch,”“castrating” and a “vaginal American,” the claim that she's only successful because of her husband and more, it's hard to overstate the barrage of sexism Clinton has faced during her time as first lady, senator, secretary of state, and presidential candidate.

Now that Clinton is set to become first female presidential candidate for a major party in U.S. history, the media should avoid falling into this inexcusable cycle of rampant sexism and misogyny in their general election coverage.
