Jezzy, Jezzy...
I just finished reading a really interesting article at Slate about the psuedo-feminist blog Jezebel, of which I am a daily reader. However, Jezebel has really been pissing me off lately with their treatment of motherhood and pregnancy and opinions about obesity and health. It's latest ridiculous post was an attack on The Daily Show about it's treatment toward women in the wake of hiring Olivia Munn. Because of the Slate piece, I won't link to the original post on Jezebel, but do know that the women at the Daily Show struck back and wrote an open letter.This type of criticism is counterproductive and makes blogs just look bad, in my opinion. Why bother attacking The Daily Show when they're one of the few liberally-minded programs out there? Pick your battles better, ladies. Reading the Slate criticism of Jezebel really gave me some insight and is helping me dismiss them as just another interest-driven media outlet.
