In class last week, during the break, some people were commenting on Sarah Palin. Commenting is a subtle way to put it, these people were bashing her. Then one girl spoke up and said that she thinks Sarah Palin is being treated unfairly. I have to agree with her. The media is incredibly biased when it comes to the election. I have heard some of the most shocking things said about her since McCain announced her as his running mate.
The media has been mocking her because she is from a small town, and that she doesn't have the experience to be Vice President, and quite possibly President. The media has been mocking her about her family life and the decisions she makes. I actually saw a magazine claiming that Trigg, her five month-old son, wasn't even her child. They were demading to see her records from her doctors to prove that it is her son.
They make fun of her husband for being Mr. Mom, and they actually have the gall to ask if she is capable of raising a family and being Vice President. Since when do liberals believe that women can't work and successfully raise a family?
The double standard is shocking. I'm not saying that Sarah Palin shouldn't be asked difficult questions, but the media should at least be consistent and ask just as difficult of questions to Obama and Biden.
