Introducing Salon's cheeky new women's blog The editors [2005-10-24]

• Offensive advertisement for "Women's blog"

  What is with Salon?

  How can you start what you term a "women's blog" and

  include "catfight" in the advertisement? The term

  catfight is extremely sexist. I have noticed that

  Salon has been having more and more pointless and

  sometimes offensive crap on its site. Last week there

  was the whiny and very silly article about how awful

  it is when children have homework - shock! horror! -

  homework - and now you demean women with this schlock.

  If I had not just renewed my membership, I wouldn't.

  I am a woman and I know that other women read your

  site. Why don't you try not to be such sexist

  creeps?

  Just a clue - a "women's blog" would not be about how much women hate each other and fight. Who came up with this brilliant idea? I football-watching-20-year-old male? How stupid are your female readers supposed to be?

  If I paid a week ago is it still possible to get my money back. This is my third year as a subscriber, but I think that I have had enough!
