Mark Halperin, You’re a Sexist

halperinsexistpig.jpg

How dare you? It is now eminently clear that every major news organization in this nation needs a series of seminars on SEXISM.

How unconscious are you, Mark Halperin, that you wouldn’t realize that such an image was constantly used to portray women in the old cowboy movies as helpless but tantalizing vixens, and that their being tied up was a sexual ploy because it meant that men could either ravish them or save them — since the women, always, were unable to rescue themselves.

You disgust me, Mark Halperin. You and your elitist Obamedia pals.

Then there’s your knuckledragging pal, Tucker Carlson:

Media Matters thoughtfully points out:

On Morning Joe, Carlson compared Clinton to a “cat in a box” and a “drunk party guest”

Summary: On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Tucker Carlson said of Sen. Hillary Clinton, “Look, she’s a trapped animal, there’s absolutely no question about it. As I’ve thought to myself many times, if you’ve ever tried to get your cat in a box, you know what Hillary Clinton is doing right now.” Carlson then imitated a screeching cat, and added, “with all four paws out, all the hair standing up? Look, she is in feral mode.” Later in the segment, Mika Brzezinski referred to Clinton as “the cat in a box, as Tucker so aptly put it.”

    Thank you, Susan. At l(e)ast someone online knows her tropes. More and more I am viewing this primary as one grand sexist phantasm.

      I can’t wait to see Obama brought down. I will be so proud knowing my vote really counted.

    grotesque.

    • http://noquarterusa.net/blog/ Truthteller

      I guess Halperin believes all women should be relegated to the horizontal.

  • lisab

    Seriously, an absolutely great post mortem after the fall election would be as many of these swipes as possible just piled on top of each other. I think in this case, size matters . . .

  • devilspeak

    well, it doesnt seem to stop, and it is getting uglier by the day……i hope someone pastes his e-mail address so i can tell his dumb ass off ! this is throughly disgusting, how dare this country do this to a woman. it is time for a an uprising of women in this country that we are not going to stand for this one day longer….this is larger than racism and its women’s turn to stop this degragation once and for all…..i am appalled.

    • Nicole

      Everyone: it’s time to completely and absolutely BOYCOTT MSNBC…and to start a email/letter-writing/phone campaign to its sponsors, all of them. But, just stop watching–nothing hurts them more than dwindling viewership.

      BTW: Tucker has always been a fatuous nonentity, but increasingly I find Mika disgustingly offensive, and she’s not at all bright or entertaining (although she’s not as bad as the scary cadaver otherwise known as Andrea Mitchell).

    • NoQ_Reader

      I can’t find contact info for him. Write to letters@time.com. I did. Thanks.

  • Masslib

    Yes, and when will anyone in the Dem leadership speak out?

  • rjj

    Ah, the little Tucker: Richard Carlson’s expense of spirit in a waste of sperm.

    William Shakespeare – Sonnet #129

    The expense of spirit in a waste of shame
    Is lust in action; and till action, lust
    Is perjured, murderous, bloody, full of blame,
    Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust;
    Enjoy’d no sooner but despised straight;
    Past reason hunted; and no sooner had,
    Past reason hated, as a swallowed bait,
    On purpose laid to make the taker mad:
    Mad in pursuit, and in possession so;
    Had, having, and in quest to have, extreme;
    A bliss in proof, and proved, a very woe;
    Before, a joy proposed; behind, a dream.

    All this the world well knows; yet none knows well
    To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell.

    • http://hyper-educated-uppity-woman.blogspot.com Uppity

      You know, when I see Tucker Carlson, I imagine that he pees sitting down.

      • Diane

        ROFL!

  • Dawnelle

    yea that was a stupid graphic

    do you think Mark had anything to do with the picture tho?

    I’ve never thought of him as being very nasty towards Hillary (compared to some of them)

    David Schuster especially disappoints me STILL (I hear him snicker in the background when he’s interviewing someone and they say something derogatory about Hillary)

    • http://noquarterusa.net/ SusanUnPC

      That’s HIS NAME up there.

      • Dawnelle

        I know but some writers are lazy and just hand in their copy and some lackie data entry gal (like I was eons ago) gets stuck doing the rest.

        just saying

        • NoQ_Reader

          No doubt some production staff did that, I am sure he doesn’t Photoshop stuff himself. But they have editors and the editors know whose name is on the page and who will be held accountable for screw ups. Let ‘em have it, and hopefully he’ll let his staff know to cut it out.

      She wouldn’t find anything, Uppity! ;)

  • hwddawg

    Mika Brzezinski dove in with her own jabs, and was asking Tucker Carlson to do the imitation of a screeching cat again, as if even once wasn’t bad enough.

    • Dawnelle

      I HATE THAT BIMBO!!! ARGH she’s as empty headed as a dozen college 4 obamabots!!

    • Brenda Mcalpine

      Do you know if Mika Brzezinski graduated from kindergarten?

  • Ugo

    It is sad to watch some women in the media that have no idea what they do to themselvies by being sexist toward other women, in this case towards Sen. Hillary Clinton. It is wrong for men to do it. All of use, we all have a woman in our lifes.

    Is it not ironic, how Obama claims to be a product of single mom(single woman). Go figure!

  • Pie Hole

    Susan,

    You buried the lede. Yes, Senator Clinton is tied to a railroad track in the stereotypical, eroticicized, imminent-death scenario of the olde time westerns.

    But sexism isn’t the thing we should be most concerned about here.

    Clearly MARK HALPERIN IS CALLING FOR HILLARY’S ASSASSINATION!

    Can you imagine the uproar if any ‘journalist’ ran a story with a photo of Obama that illustrated a manner of death typically associated with black men.

    That’s the real story here (imo).

    • Dawnelle

      ROFLMAO!! good one!

      • http://www.akpmedia.com/ David Axisrutt

        Yeah. Notice how the NY Post picked up on it. Not. Notice how Wolfson did nothing too. Remember Keitho saying ‘take her into a dark room and only she comes out’. This was harped on at the time. Yes it’s disgusting because it’s direct – it’s not ‘Obama Golf’. But they’re not going to pick this up. They’re all having their Barry Obama wet dreams.

    • http://noquarterusa.net/ SusanUnPC

      I clearly missed that.

      WHY DOES MARK HALPERIN WANT HILLARY TO DIE?????

      • http://www.akpmedia.com/ David Axisrutt

        Because she threatened to kill Robert Kennedy and Mark has a crush on Robert Kennedy. ;)

    • John

      Only black men can be threatened with violence, didnt you know that?

      What seems to be threatening a woman with violence is just good clean fun. Lighten up.

      God I can’t wait for this year to be over. I’ve never been more disgusted with the media and my party in my entire life. If this all ends with a Hillary win or an Obama loss by a huge margin, it will be some solace, anyway.

    • http://paganpower.wordpress.com/ PaganPower

      Your humor hides a serious issue.

    I’d suggest someone with clout writing to those agencies and having the image removed.

    We knew that these next days would get more ugly as the all the forces would come to play, torture and destroy the victim—be in on the kill. This is the same media frenzy crowd that happily joined the Shock and Awe across Iraq. This is the same media frenzy crowd who tore apart Al Gore as boring, impersonal, made fun of him. Aren’t they special. They have given us so much. It is past time to return the favor.

    Mika Brzezinski is Zbig Brzinski’s daughter, and her brother works for Obama as well. It is really sickening and infuriating when the women participate and contribute to the rampant sexism on television. The sad thing is nobody from the DNC – especially Nancy Pelosi – is saying “boo” about any of this.

    • http://www.akpmedia.com/ David Axisrutt

      her brother works for Obama as well

        her brother works for Obama as well

        Yer shitting me! I gotta research this!

        Her brother AND father work for Barry, and one of her other brothers works for McCain. She says it at least 1x/week when she thinks that there is a conflict. I stopped listening to that crazy ho. Once upon a time, she was a bonafide journalist at CBS, then she turned into a HO for MSNBC — she is sickening.

      There you go. That is a comparable visual. These MSM men have NO clue just how horrific it is to us women — just as horrific as that image.

    • Kinky Ogremann

      Great comparative visual – apparently because women make up a slightly larger majority, it’s open season on them even though they have yet to achieve equal rights or representation in this country. PIGS – the whole lot of them. Boycott them and their advertisers ladies! That’s the only place it hurts.

    • http://paganpower.wordpress.com/ PaganPower

      I really think that these Neanderthals don’t have a clue how offensive they really are. Almost like they are missing the part of their brain that figures this stuff out. Either that or they are just sexist pigs. I’m flexible.

  • beyoncehasbigthighs

    Oh for the love of god, enough is enough!!!!!

    You will pay for this Halperin and you villains Tucker Carlson and Mika BREZKEGRHEFRAAAAAA.

    It truly is getting worse each day. The press has no limit whatsoever. The dogs need to be put on leash again.

  • jessie

    As I have said for 8 months now – Mika Brzezenski is the ultimate b*tch under the desk for Obama. When she brings her father Zbig (hates all things jewish) on the show and he drools about Obama-Marxist and says “Oh, Daddy” I love you. She makes me want to throw up.

    MSNBC Obama Network is trying to be the Air America of the cable news shows. Air America is a loser and Randi Rhodes, Ed Schultz and Rachel Maddox need to start looking for new jobs because after the election who in the hell is going to listen to their sh*t. MSNBC Obama Network will go back to only pedophile show and prison lockups. Pathetic.

    Mika hope you love seeing your family brought out into the open for the Jewish Hating group they are. You make me sick b*tch.

  • Pie Hole

    Kcfromtx,

    You stated outright what I only dared imply; thank you.

    That was the point I was making. Depicting the violent death of a female Presidential candidate is first, and foremost, a HOMICIDAL depiction. However misogyny, and the attendant double standard, is so god-damn omnipresent, we can’t see the forest for the trees.

    Ergo, women are supposed to ‘have a sense of humor’ about these things. Well, I’ll get a sense of humor about this when Mark Halperin, Axelrod, Obama, and Obama supporters are able to have a hearty chuckle when they see a Time magazine composite photo of Obama hanging from a tree (as per the foregoing comment by kcfromtx).

  • kat in your hat

    You all know who Mika Brzezinski’s father is, don’t you?

    I’ll give you a clue…he used to be Jimmy Carter’s foreign policy advisor.

    NOW he’s OBAMA’S foreign policy advisor.

    Zbigniew Brzezinski.

    Mika obviously has reason to be biased.

    tidbit:
    Also, don’t trust Zogby polls, John and James are down with Obama and fundraise/ lobby for him to supers.

    Please ask Media Matters to hold Keith Olbermann accountable for his constant Hillary bashing. Below is contact information and a sample email. They have been great about calling out other biased commentators, but have avoided Keith. Please CALL AND EMAIL. Use this email or write your own, just make sure you do your part and politely get in touch with them.

    CONTACT INFORMATION FOR MEDIA MATTERS:

    mm-tips@mediamatters.org
    202-756-4100

    Subject: Hold Keith Olbermann Accountable

    Dear Mr. Foser,

    While Media Matters has made a significant effort to hold many MSNBC commentators, such as Chris Matthews and Tucker Carlson, responsible for their often biased, sexist, and irresponsible coverage, you have failed to take on one of the most egregious violators of balanced journalism at MSNBC – Keith Olbermann. Mr. Olbermann may be a liberal, but he is no better than Bill O’Reilly or Rush Limbaugh.

    Mr. Olbermann presents himself as a credible journalist, in the tradition of the esteemed Edward R. Murrow, while in the same breath he goes off into fits of rage (often sexist in tone) against Senator Hillary Clinton. Mr. Olbermann’s rants are too often based on nothing more than his own fantastical deranged Hillary hate. See below for just three examples (of many):

    March 12th, Olbermann likens Hillary Clinton to David Duke in a scathing, spittle scattering, fit of rage.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/taylor-marsh/keith-olbermann-is-no-edw_ b_91351.html

    April 23rd, Olbermann suggests a superdelegate take Hillary into a back room and the superdelegate should be the only person who comes out.

    http://anglachelg.blogspot.com/2008/04/olberman-calls-for-clintons-mu rder.html

    May 23rd, Olbermann actually has the audacity to suggest that in Senator Clinton’s perhaps poorly worded, but benign, remarks about Robert F. Kennedy tragic passing, she was calling for the unthinkable against Senator Obama.

    http://taylormarsh.com/archives_view.php?id=27770
    http://taylormarsh.com/archives_view.php?id=27796

    Keith Olbermann has gone too far during this primary election – he is a threat to responsible journalism. I am asking Media Matters to help us hold Olbermann accountable.

    • Kinky Ogremann

      Thank you! I’ve just emailed them using your letter and I do hope they take this guy to task!

  • jessie

    No wonder Obama/Marxist thinks Iran is such a tiny problem compared to Soviet Union – he learned alot from Zbigniew Brzezinski as he states in this clip:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJTv2nFjMBk&feature=related

    Oh, Mika, you silly silly girl you and your family are so tied into the making of Obama you will be found out.

    So, I ask, who really is pulling Obama/Marxist strings?

    There is a web that leads to the Elite Marxist gang that holds on so dear and has now found its vehicle

    OBAMA/MARXIST

  • Kinky Ogremann

    I’m so glad to see women standing up for each other. As we have more and more new immigrants come into this country from extremely patriarchal societies that espouses really sexist attitudes, if we don’t stand up for it now, don’t be surprised when we start reinstituting laws of the 1800s against women in this country forced to wear clothes from their neck down to their ankles – regardless of the 110 degree heat. You saw those polygamous Mormon women in Texas, right?

    And now this stuff is spewed in the airwaves every day – it’s disgusting and new generations of men are going to think it’s okay to treat women this way, to call them sluts, whores, bitches regardless of what they do or say. Professional women are already feeling the backlash. Sexism doesn’t just hurt women, it hurts their children, their families, the men who care about them. It brings with it an acceptance of violence against women, demean them, dehumanize them – if you no longer see someone as a human being, much less an equal, you can then commit the worst atrocities on them (just ask any genocidal leader).

    Thank you Hillary for fighting for all women – whether they know it now or will for sure experience the sexism somewhere in the future – I guarantee it.

  • rosaleen

    Zbigniew Brzezinski is the rocket scientist who was behind the forming of, the training of and the arming of the Taliban and a few other armies. This was to mess with the Russians. He was so stupid he didn’t have a clue that the USSR was on its last legs. Or he wanted to get credit for destroying the USSR. Or whatever his motives were, he was the dumbass who gave us the Taliban. Zbigniew Brzezinski is now plying his trade as one of B.O.’s foreign policy advisors.

    This is just one part of B.O.’s mantra –hopey changey –that I don’t understand.

    Upthread someone asked where are the Democrats, our Democrats in all this? It seems like they’re all on the hopey changey train with B.O. or they are hiding under their desks with their fingers up their noses. Or what?

    Virginia Woolf advised that women separate themselves from the system –eschew participation altogether. She spoke of the unreal loyalties we can let go of. I’ll bet if we all stayed home in November and things got tight for the down ticket Democrats who have remained silent in the face an hateful misogynist assault on a U.S. Senator and her supporters, we might get some respect from the Democratic Party. Of course some might say that would be “shrill.” I’m just sayin’.

    • http://paganpower.wordpress.com/ PaganPower

      In my not so humble opinion “staying home” accomplishes nothing. If you want to make a statement vote AGAINST the Democrats that just don’t get it. That will wake them up if they have it within them to open their eyes.

  • rosaleen

    I never connected Mika Brzezinski with Zbigniew Brzezinski. I had no idea she was his daughter. I did always wonder how she got her job. So thanks to whomever posted that.

    • Kinky Ogremann

      Yes she is. Just like how Andrea Mitchell got her job – she is married to the former fed chair – Alan Greenspan. It’s all one big incestuous media affair. No wonder no one on there is an actual responsible journalist.

  • yttik

    It’s ironic and horrifying that so many visual images of Clinton can revolve around death.

    The media can use terms towards Hillary such as “gasping for breath, “in her death throes”, “when is somebody going to take her out,” “nail the coffin shut”, etc, etc. Dogwhistles for death are a matter of routine when talking about women on the news. And it’s not just limited to Clinton, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, they’re all subjected to the same misogynistic language.

    But who is everyone worried about? Obama. Nevermind that the most recent political assassination involved a female, Benazir Bhutto. Nevermind that the country’s new national pastime is playing Hillary deathwatch.

    Honestly, while Hillary is tied down waiting for the train to hit her, allegedly she’s also threatening Obama with her reference to Kennedy. It’s almost humorous in a way, because if that were even possible, that’s the kind of tenacity you’d want in a President.

  • rosaleen

    What yttik said!

  • jessie

    There is an article over at lgf about Zbig Brzezinski and Obama-Marxist comrades.

    Barack Hussein Obama has surrounded himself with anti-Semites, terrorists and terror apologists.

    SNOBama’s “fathers”:

    “Mentor” Frank Davis
    “Reverend” Al Sharpton
    “Reverend” James Meeks
    “Reverend” Jeremiah Wright
    “Reverend” Otis Moss III
    “Minister” Louis Farrakhan
    “Pastor” Michael Pfleger
    “Reverend” James Bevel
    “Reverend” Eric Lee
    “Pastor” Mack King
    “Bishop” Desmond Tutu
    SNOBama’s “money men”:

    George Soros
    Syrian Tony Rezko
    Saddam Hussein’s gun-running bagman Nadhmi Auchi
    SNOBama’s anti-Semitic “advisors”:

    William C. Ayers
    Bernadine Dohrn
    Samantha Power
    Greg Craig
    Robert Malley

    Zbigniew Brzezinski
    Jodie Evans
    The Black Panthers
    Lawrence Lessig
    Sam Graham-Felsen
    Joseph Cirincione
    Cornell West
    Judging by the people he surrounds himself with, Barack Hussein Obama intends to “Wipe Israel Off the Map”.

    Not to mention some of Barack Hussein Obama’s more interesting supporters:

    Hamas
    Iran
    Hatem El-Hady
    FARC
    Hugo Chavez

  • hwddawg

    Anyone can confirm Virgin Islands DNC member Kevin Rodriguez switched back to Hillary Clinton today?

  • Kinky Ogremann

    Some good news about MSNBC from Media Matters:

    “And, no, in case you’re wondering, Matthews is not generating huge ratings during the campaign, so that’s not why he’s been designated hot. Despite the Times’ claims about how the “thrilling 2008 presidential campaign has been a boon” for MSNBC and “something of a heyday” for Matthews, Hardball’s ratings are rather middling this year compared with the mighty gains others have posted during the historic White House campaign. CNN, for instance, has ridden the Obama/Clinton wave into first place in prime time, beating Fox News for the first time since the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

    Also note that MSNBC recently canceled Tucker Carlson’s show, which aired at 6 p.m. ET, right before Hardball, and replaced it with a weekday campaign show hosted by NBC’s David Gregory. Almost overnight, the Gregory show has been able to secure an audience similar in size to Hardball, which has been on the air for more than a decade.

    No wonder the NBC brass is considering cutting Matthews, and his $5 million salary, loose.”

    I sure hope they do fire Matthews – he’s easily replaceable enough. Tons of non-misogynistic political commentators out there and about time too!

    • mahaska

      If anyone is shrill, it’s mathews. I can’t stand his voice or his opinions.

  • ohmercy

    Has Media matters seen this?
    this isn’t sexism, well it is, but it is beyond it. This is misogyny, kind of like the “I wish Hillary had married OJ” quote on that bar marquee the media did not cover the day they did the Curious George Tee Shirt story.

    This is showing the potential death of the first viable woman Presidential candidate, a sitting senator and former first lady.

    If something like this were put out about Obama the outcry of racism would be incredible.
    I just don’t get that people don’t understand how pernicious misogyny is.
    Who the hell do they think burned and hung the “witches” in Europe, and why?
    Estimates are from 100,000 to 2 MILLION. Others are from 7 to 11 MILLION.There are no solid numbers but let’s say a hell of a lot.
    A holocaust if you will.
    I wonder what the percentage would be in relation to population and what it would mean if it were in todays numbers. Yipes.
    (yes Salem too, but not nearly as many.they were hanged. or is it hung?) Isn’t that a valid claim? Why isn’t this seen as something as terrible as racism. Maybe there is not enough attention on the violent crimes against women. Meaning maybe these crimes need to start being reported as crimes against women, hate crimes instead of a domestic dispute or a robbery, or rape.

    I’m at a loss as to how to get these things considered, looked at, done.
    Damn I’m pissed off.

  • Laura

    Tucker Carlson really ought to be castrated. The more I hear talk like this, the more I am convinced that Hillary has to take this to the convention.

    In my lifetime I have come to the conclusion that sometimes, for whatever reason, a vile and worthless spirit is allowed to dwell in human flesh. We all know these types. They are the people who take up time, space, money and resources that other, more-deserving humans should rightly have. I call these vile beings by their rightful titles: A Waste of Flesh.

    Matthews, Olberman, Halperin, Carlson and OBAMA and their ilk are nothing more than A Waste of Flesh. Pure and simple.

    Women of America – especially the Democrat women – it’s time to UNITE. It’s time to bring the men down (not you Hillary supporters, though – YOU are REAL men :) ) If Obummer is elected as the nominee, then the way to show our REVOLT is the November election. Either don’t vote or vote for McCain – JUST MAKE SURE OBUMMER IS NOT ELECTED. Maybe the next time a woman (a good, qualified candidate of course) runs for president, the media and the wussy men will see that women are a very strong and important voting bloc and that we are a power to be reckoned with! Let’s see Obama and his army of race-card playing sheep and sexists cry this November. Maybe they’ll remember not to mess with us again!

    With regard to that list of the Precious’s advisors, Edward Said left the planet years ago. And I don’t think he was an anti-semite, either.

    Add Jake Tapper (CBS) to the list although I think he’s probably actually a republican.

    These media people are like the jokers and fools of past times. They have no substance and no depth whatsoever.

    I think it should be fairly clear to anyone paying the slightest bit of attention to what is going on why Hillary is staying in the race

    Remember the famous “crying” episode before the NH primary. Hillary said her motivations go beyond politics and that they are personal. She said she has seen what is happening in this country and can’t turn away.

    I am sure, despite the Clintons autobiographies, that there are many untold stories about what has happened in the last 20 years or so in national/international politics. The Clintons know the secrets. They are someone’s archenemies and they must be put down at any cost…even at the expense of destroying the Democratic Party or electing another puppet fraud to the White House.

    I like to think of Hillary as America’s Joan of Arc. Hopefully, she will be spared the fate of being burned at the stake. But no matter the outcome of her efforts, she will be a shining example for the ages.

    Here’s my letter to the Times Editor -

    How dare you. How dare you present a graphic of the former First Lady of the United States, and a United States Senator, laying on train tracks, with all it’s implications of rape and murder. What’s next, Obama in a noose? Oh, wait, that would be socially unacceptable, you wouldn’t even consider that. But the destruction of an esteemed woman, you are perfectly ok with promoting that.

    I will never read your magazine again. I prefer to read news sources that are in keeping with the present century, not those that reflect the mores of medieval times.

      ok since we’re sharing …… here’s my letter
      —————-
      Mark,
      I’ve always thought you to be relatively fair where Hillary is concerned. That photoshop pic of Hillary is NOT A GOOD CHOICE of her on the tracks.

      BAD choice!

      I am a disabled,divorced, Mother & Veteran and USED to be proud of my party.

      I am now disgusted with it. If they pick the punk w/NO credentials and a GARBAGE past w/baggage out the DOOR then I and a million other women will be changing our party and our votes come NOV.

      Mark if that happens you KNOW you will be partially to blame right? You could make it better not worse. Tell your male friends if they WANT to help they can but unless they WANT 4 more years of BUSH then they better GIVE UP ON OBAMBI!! He doesn’t have a snowballs chance in hell of winning in the GE.

      Sincerely,
      Dawn #### in
      @@@@, NC
      (originally from ####)

      COUNT OUR VOTES PEOPLE!!!!! OR WE WALK IN NOV.

    I cannot understand HOW Halperin gets so much work. He’s untalented, boring and almost always WRONG on his political facts–God does take care of babies and FOOLS and Halperin IS a douchebag and fool…
