Is the liberal media listening to women’s opinions on Doug Emhoff?
The new face of masculinity strikes again, and most media are still ignoring it: Weeks after reports that Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff slapped his then-girlfriend for talking to another man comes news that staffers at his old law firm accuse him of being an “a–hole” and a “misogynist” who demeaned female colleagues.
None of that’s fully confirmed, of course, but he did admit to knocking up the nanny while married to his first wife.
And of course the new charges would have brought a major-media firestorm if they’d been leveled against, say, Brett Kavanaugh.
Indeed, then-Sen. Kamala Harris was all over the (utterly unsubstantiated) allegations against Kavanaugh, but “believe all women” apparently only counts if the accused is one of your political targets.
The latest accusations paint the longtime hotshot entertainment lawyer as a sleazeball who hired a model (while married to Harris) to be a “trophy secretary” and joined in cultivating a work environment toxic for his female subordinates and peers.
All behavior you’d expect at a Hollywood law firm, at least before #MeToo took off.
At the very least, this adds to the impression that MSNBC’s Jen Psaki did precisely zero research before hailing the Democratic nominee’s hubby as a “wife guy” who “reshaped the perception of masculinity.”
It’s another sad sign of how most of the press has dropped any concern for truth in favor of shameless cheerleading.
