I'm loving the coverage of the biggest sexism row ever. TV pundits do actually say things like

"Did you hear charming Karren Brady this morning complaining about sexism? Do me a favour, love."

and ask their female co-presenters to drop microphones down their trousers.

And then get called out for it and sacked.

There's a big sea change in how the media is dealing with sexism in sport and harrassment. It's all good.

Head over to the British media sites, there's loads of coverage. This article is a good start.

"It was just a (harmless) bit of fun" - still the standard excuse, I see.
