However, many writers and organizations -- including <em>Media Matters for America</em> -- have noted Dowd's feminization of male Democratic presidential candidates. http://mediamatters.org/items/200806220003 Sun, 22 Jun 2008 19:44:18 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200806100002 A <em>Media Matters for America </em>review of Maureen Dowd's columns since the beginning of 2007 reveals that Dowd frequently characterized Sen. Hillary Clinton as masculine, while portraying Sen. Barack Obama and John Edwards as feminine. By contrast, Dowd rarely feminized the all-male Republican field and, during the period <em>Media Matters </em>reviewed, has never feminized Sen. John McCain, whom she has referred to in one column as a "tough guy[]." http://mediamatters.org/items/200806100002 Tue, 10 Jun 2008 11:10:49 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200805060001 On Fox News, Morton M. Kondracke presented a "theory" for why Sen. Hillary Clinton may be having a "good time" on the campaign trail: "[S]omebody I know has a theory about this. Remember back when [Bill] Clinton was president of the United States, people said that he's really Satan because he walks through life and people collapse around him and go to jail and die, and all this kind of stuff? Well, this person says Hillary's a vampire. She's sucking the blood out of Barack Obama." Kondracke did not name his "theor[ist]," but the purported "theory" has been publicly articulated before, by <em>New York Times </em>columnist Maureen Dowd. http://mediamatters.org/items/200805060001 Tue, 6 May 2008 11:52:00 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200802270010 In recent days, members of the media asserted that Sen. Hillary Clinton displayed "mood swings," "could be depressed," "[r]esembl[ed] someone with multiple personality disorder," and "has turned into Sybil." http://mediamatters.org/items/200802270010 Wed, 27 Feb 2008 20:21:25 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200801100006 Responding to an online commenter who said that a lot of women are "getting incredibly angry about the progressively dismissive way" Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton "gets treated by the [<em>New York Times</em> columnist Maureen] Dowds and [MSNBC host Chris] Matthews of the world," <em>The Washington Post</em>'s Anne E. Kornblut asserted, "I think there is something to that" and "certainly Chris Matthews has taken her on quite aggressively over the last few weeks." http://mediamatters.org/items/200801100006 Thu, 10 Jan 2008 13:11:14 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200801090005 Discussing a recent campaign event during which Sen. Hillary Clinton's voice broke while answering a question from the audience, several media figures have baselessly claimed that Clinton's actions were not "genuine" or were "pretend[]," including Glenn Beck, who said of the incident, "Hillary Clinton isn't just running for president, but she's also making a run for the best actress nomination." Michelle Malkin wrote that "[a]nyone who believes Hillary spontaneously teared up and got emotional on the campaign trail has been in a coma the last three decades." http://mediamatters.org/items/200801090005 Wed, 9 Jan 2008 13:23:14 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200712230001 Echoing an article by <em>New York Times</em> reporter Patrick Healy about President Clinton's appearance on PBS' <em>Charlie Rose Show</em>, Maureen Dowd wrote, "He got so agitated with Charlie Rose -- ranting that reporters were 'stenographers' for [Sen. Barack] Obama [D-IL] -- that his aides tried to stop the interview." But neither Dowd nor Healy noted Rose's actual on-air comments on the matter, indicating that the interview had gone "over" time -- not that the aides were concerned about the content of the interview. http://mediamatters.org/items/200712230001 Sun, 23 Dec 2007 19:48:04 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200710040003 http://mediamatters.org/items/200710040003 Wed, 3 Oct 2007 21:29:04 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200706210011 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706210011 Thu, 21 Jun 2007 17:29:07 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200706120005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706120005 Tue, 12 Jun 2007 16:19:35 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200705010001 http://mediamatters.org/items/200705010001 Tue, 1 May 2007 12:25:37 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703010001 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703010001 Wed, 28 Feb 2007 20:11:22 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702250001 http://mediamatters.org/items/200702250001 Sun, 25 Feb 2007 15:21:51 EST
