16. I doubt she gaver her own opinions much voice. I think she was stating

the obvious, or what should be considered absolutely obvious and entirely neutral from a professional, journalistic perspective.

She’s essentially said:
1. Women should be valued for roles they choose in families and the work they do there. Women should also be valued for the roles they choose and the work they do as members of human societies.
2. We are seeing an ever-widening gap between the sexes in this country, and it is at the very least, less than ideal.

I think she was just introducing basic, ground-level facts in a conversation that was entirely lacking just that. It sounds like the conversation was, “Should women work OR should they have babies?” There is (almost) no such thing as a woman who doesn’t work, there is only paid and unpaid work.

The honest conversation would center around what really has the GOP males so upset. Loss of supremacy of the white male.
