Press corps. >> olivia, i saw you responding to this on twitter. >> my view is that i think we contribute to this a little bit in how we talk about it. when i see headlines that say the president speaks rudely to female reporters, i think that that is sexist in itself as well. is they are not female reporters. they are reporters who happen to be female. they were asking credible questions that the president i don't believe answered. we should be judging them as reporters first. i think their gender, when we talk about their gender as though it is the most important thing about that exchange wi...
