[See NewsBusters for more.] The journalists at CBS This Morning on Thursday hailed Barack Obama as the “feminist-in-chief” and praised his new essay in Glamour magazine on “women and politics.” Naturally, Democratic donor and co-host Gayle King expanded the discussion to a complaint about people disliking Hillary Clinton. Talking to editor-in-chief Cindi Leive and insisted, “ In Glamour magazine, you've been talking a lot about politics. I want to switch to Hillary Clinton and about likability. Because don't you find it interesting that this is still an issue for her today? ” Leive scolded, “They [voters] can accept voting for somebody they think is competent but not necessarily like likable. They are tougher on women.”
