Katie Couric shows a double standard in our society

Katie Couric is frustrated with her job. (With her paycheck, I’ll take the frustration.) The final straw for her comes when an editor uses a perfectly acceptable English word when writing about TB—sputum. So what does she do? She gets angry, yells at the editor, and hits him repeatedly (on the arm.) And then it’s over. No hue and cry over physical abuse. No liberals screaming for her head over the injustice of a big-name using her power over an underling. Katie is so lucky she’s a woman. If she were a man and did what she did she’d be vilified. Abuse is abuse. Or is it?
