Hillary, the MEN are talking (an analysis of who interrupts the most...)

[LisaM]

This bears out other research I've read on the perceptions of men and women talking - if women go above a certain percentage (in a study I read many, many years ago it was something like 15% of the time), they were perceived as talking more than half the time.

1. Excellent! Thanks for posting this!

Bernie interrupts her constantly, and when he isn't verbally interrupting he makes disgusted faces and/or motions with his fingers or hand. Fortunately his finger gestures default to the index finger, but it most definitely is rude and distracting while she speaks.

4. I'm glad someone took the time to do the research.

Watching the debates and reading the debate threads griping about her doing the interrupting was annoying, of course, but at times I wondered if we were all actually watching the same debate!

Vocativ spent Thursday re-watching all of the Democratic debates to analyze just how frequently the candidates interrupted one another.
