Garance Franke-Ruta wrote a recent article in The American Prospect noting that women are never heard in the debates and discussions about abortion. Now if we were to pick a topic that would seem uniquely suited to female blather, as opposed to blather in general, one would think…..However, even here women are apparently incapable of forthright and wise discussion on a subject.

I watch To the Contrary…PBS Women’s Issues show on Sunday morning.

I never liked the title of it. It implies that men’s views are mainstream and acceptable…and women’s are well, contrary.

It does give a woman’s spin and seems to be balanced in terms of political affiliation of the guests.

It’s only a half hour, I wish it was an hour.

Women aren’t well represented even in progressive media.

We will see and hear more women commentators when they rise above the status of Ann Coulter.

We will see more women commentators when women own the the major media machine. It would benefit all of us.

Why donâ€™t we hear a lot more from the women in one of Americaâ€™s largest and most popular growth industries - the adult industry?
Yeah Prof.Rat, like from the Re/Search Angry Women series. They’ve got some pretty incisive things to say.
BTW. Not wearing deodorant.

Nina Hartley and Mary Carey have stuff to say about politics and Sabrina Johnson is a writer.

And as far as Katie Couric goes she should just stop the tease and show us the whole proctoscope ‘ Fantastic Voyage’. Women hold up MORE than half the sky and they have always been holy to me. ( Plus they smell SO nice.)

No opinion a law - no opinion a crime. Happy holidays Jenna Jameson.

You write, “So why arenâ€™t women equally represented on the Sunday morning talk shows?

“Got me.

“Habit?”

I don’t know either, but I will say this: The one woman who appeared on Meet the Press was wearing a habit.

Turn off & tune out MSM and turn on Democracy Now, C-Span Book Notes, fdl, huff, etc. et al, if indeed, one seeks fair and balanced news & analysis in this bleak Age of Corporate Corruption of American MSM, sans the GOBS – good ole boys – and GOGs – with few cable exceptions – i.e., Moyers, Obermann & Jon Stewart, etc., et al.

Trust me for it has sure worked wonders for this old media brat.
