Let's Talk About Sex(ism) Again

Tim Russert was one of the few DC power players who took accusations of sexism in the media seriously, according to Marie C. Wilson, the President of the White House Project. Not that long ago the WHP conducted a study of the Sunday morning shows and concluded that women appeared at approximately a 1:9 ratio to men. When told of this, Russert, apparently surprised by the result, had the group in and demanded a recount before admitting that the WHP was right (presumably the disconnect was of less interest to others).
