Andrea Mitchell gives disgraced ex-Rep. Katie Hill a chance to empower women by tell her 'difficult story' of being a victim of sexism [video]

You know who we haven’t heard from in a while? Former Democratic Rep. Katie Hill.

Thank goodness for Andrea Mitchell doing her part to keep Hill front and center on the national stage. Otherwise we’d miss out on important social and political commentary like this:

“One of the biggest reasons I decided to write the book, is that I feel like my experiences are … so universal across — whether it’s experiences around sexual assault or an abusive relationship or even the way that power manifests & how women are treated once they are in power"

— Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) August 11, 2020

Cont’d: "So we need to have a plan to dismantle those systemic blockades that women are facing."

We’re gonna have to stop Hill there. You know, since Andrea didn’t.

That’s some serious mental gymnastics.

Her “experiences are universal”.

What was the point of Andrea Mitchell’s exercise, exactly?

Andrea Mitchell asked 3 questions:

1) Don’t women like you face a double standard?

2) How do we stop the stereotypes you’ve experienced

3) Do you regret leaving Congress #journalism https://t.co/EWzBJYAmrq

So @mitchellreports had a throuple of questions.

Let’s hear it for Real Journalism™.

What a reprehensible person, and @mitchellreports is just as reprehensible for giving this woman any credibility or air time.

Note to both – don't bang your staff.
