Via Slate, a research group that tracks election coverage has found that in news stories about issues specific to women, most of the quotes are from men. This isn’t exactly news, but the degree to which this is true surprised even me.

When analyzing the gender of who is quoted in stories about women’s issues, 4thestate found that print media quote women only 13 percent of the time. Television news stories quote (or show, I suppose) women only 15 percent of the time.

I would have liked to seen the results broken down by party or political philosophy. My guess is that nearly all of the women are liberals, and the conservative views is almost exclusively voiced by men. I’d also like to see a breakdown of conservative versus liberal quotes. But this is wild enough.
