247. How is it that a clearly fringe blog

Tue Jan 14, 2014, 05:12 PM

Jan 2014

by a "RadFem" gets such a response from DUers, and yet when Brit Hume, a more or less mainstream pundit , tells us that Chris Christie is an avatar of masculinity, the response on DU is only a fraction of the back and forth here?

One is a single woman with obvious issues, evidently able to affect no one outside her immediate personal sphere of influence. The other is a "journalist" with millions of viewers, who has at least some influence over a rather large swath of the American public. Yet this "radfem" gets 242 responses and counting in a single day, and Brit Hume, who defines masculinity as the willingness to inflict pain on tens of thousands of innocent people, generates less than 50 in three days or so of comments?

It truly makes me wonder what's going on.
