Meghan McCain, who has a long history of lying, announced that she was leaving ABC-TV’s “The View” to spend more time with her “family,” an often used line in politics when people get fired. The co-host, who was regularly debunked for telling numerous falsehoods, lectured the media on her way out the door, notes Yahoo Entertainment:
The media needs to do a better job of covering the women on this show. We are covered with deep misogyny and sexism by the media. If five men were doing what we do every day, I really do believe that we’d probably have a Pulitzer Prize at this point. It’s always reduced to really reductive coverage. I implore the media to do better as they cover the rest of you going forward.
McCain often offered unsolicited advice to Democrats while admitting she was voting Republican, and she pushed right wing fearmongering of refugees.
