HOWARD KURTZ (HOST): Is it unfair for people to say, oh, look at all these women covering Hillary [Clinton]. Are they going to give her some kind of break?

HEIDI PRZYBYLA: That was some of the criticism, and I was kind of shocked to read it, that was underneath the picture of all of us women who are covering Hillary Clinton. And I was shocked because since the beginning of time it's been an all-male press corps covering male candidates. And no one would ever think to level that kind of criticism. And certainly, I can tell you quite genuinely that it was the first time that occurred to me that we would give her preferential treatment, especially considering the email stories over the summer and how hard she was battered by the press.
