Julia Seymour, writing on the Newsbusters web site, notes that the media coverage of Forbes list of billionaires has evolved into a battle of the sexes.
“While both ABC and NBC have called very successful CEOs examples of ‘runaway pay,’ there was no animosity to be found toward extremely high-earning women during the March 8 ‘World News with Charles Gibson’ or ‘Nightly News.’
“In fact, after CNBC’s Maria Bartiromo stated that 83 women made Forbes magazine’s billionaires list on NBC ‘Nightly News,’ anchor Campbell Brown chimed: ‘All right, that’s good news.’
“ABC’s ‘World News’ lauded the 1 percent club: ‘self-made members of the fairer sex,’ but left out Forbes statement that 60 percent of those on the billionaires list all made their fortunes from scratch.”
