Mr. Carr should apologize for his sexist insults against Elizabeth Warren

The Issue

Sexism, like Racism IS HATE. Sexism is used to humiliate and downgrade people all kinds of notches. This is what Boston Herald reporter Howie Carr wrote about Elizabeth Warren: "There’s something about Democrat Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren that reminds me of Granny Clampett of the Beverly Hillbillies. She’s younger, I know, and her face isn’t as emaciated. But she’s got the same hair and glasses." In other words, the stereotype doesn't even fit but Howard Carr wants to put Elizabeth Warren down so bad, he can just taste it, so he goes ahead and calls her Granny over half a dozen times in a very short and demeaning article. Howard Louis Carr should apologize for using sexist language.
