In the first place, I don't understand why this is not with the other coverage of Alito, like in War Room. And then you characterize Planned Parenthood as a "women's rights group", which it is but more than that, it is about reproductive choice and health which is a matter for both men and women.
And not in the general interest news and politics section, or even in War Room? I know plenty of men who are interested in whether or not abortion is legal, and whose voting and worldview are illuminated by this issue. Why must we segregate something as important as the real reason most of us are are going to be opposed to Alito's nomination as a "special interest" reason?
If Salon really wants to have a special "women's interest" section covering stupid girly crap like fashion and cosmetics and celebrity garbage that only certain kinds of women are all that interested in, fine, whatever. I don't read the sports news or the celebrity gossip stuff now, and I don't bother to click on the sections where they are because I know they won't be of interest to me. But please, do not put actual news stories of interest to everyone in this section. I don't want to have to sift through the garbage to find the stuff that should have been elsewhere.
