133. Sorry for my delay in replying
I think she was including other MSNBC anchors and reporters in her observation of a "troubling pattern." I do watch Hardball several times a week. I think that Mr. Matthews has been unfair in his coverage of Senator Clinton. His dislike for her is evident to me. After the NH primary, he said that he would never underestimate her again. About 12 hours later, he said that the only reason she was a Senator was because her husband "messed around." That is troubling to me.

It must be months now since Mr. Matthews started talking about Senator Clinton's "cackle." In my opinion, that is demeaning and sexist language.

This is an interesting article I found on MSNBC reporters and a pattern of sexist statements at Media Matters http://mediamatters.org/items/200802080012?f=h_top.

I disagree that Senator Clinton was incorrect in objecting to a reporter saying that she was pimping her daughter out.
