<description>On &#x3C;em&#x3E;The McLaughlin Group&#x3C;/em&#x3E;, host John McLaughlin asked Clarence Page: &#x22;Do you think Michelle [Obama] -- do you think she leaves the impression -- not mine, but I&#x27;ve heard this -- that she has a chip on her shoulder?&#x22; McLaughlin later asked Page: &#x22;You don&#x27;t think she&#x27;s a black militant?&#x22; Several media figures have recently suggested that Obama has a &#x22;chip on her shoulder,&#x22; including VDARE.com contributor Steve Sailer.  </description>

<title>Gender stereotypes and discussions of Armani suits dominate media&#x27;s coverage of Speaker-elect Pelosi</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200611210002</link>
<description>Since the Democratic Party won control of both the
House and the Senate, the media have focused on such issues as Pelosi&#x27;s
choice of attire and whether being female will affect her ability to lead. MSNBC anchor Contessa Brewer
wondered if Pelosi&#x27;s &#x22;personal feelings [were] getting in the way
of effective leadership&#x22; -- a problem she suggested would not surface in
&#x22;men-run leadership posts&#x22; -- and whether men were &#x22;more
capable of taking personality clashes.&#x22;

<title>Blankley declared Haditha allegations a &#x22;blood libel ... against the military services and against the country,&#x22; over-reported by &#x22;gleeful media&#x22;</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200606060003</link>
<description>Tony Blankley said that the reporting of the alleged massacre by U.S. troops of civilians in Haditha &#x22;is already being used by the opponents of the president&#x22; as a &#x22;blood libel,&#x22; a term that has most frequently been used to accuse Jews of murdering non-Jews, especially children, and using their blood to make Passover matzoh, and that &#x22;the over-reporting of it by a gleeful media is more damaging to the country than any other single fact.&#x22;</description>
