EP #8 - The NOBULLpen - JWR & SEXISM - DID IT HURT HER OR HELP HER?

It's toxic. It's radioactive. It's dangerous. But we tackle it anyway.

As the SNC_Lavalin controversy exploded, some voices were saying former Attorney-General/Minister of Justice was a victim of sexism and sexist attitudes. Were they right? And if so - did this sexism hurt JWR...or help her?

Asking unpopular questions that need to be asked in a forum that's civil, analytical & opinionated yet maintains a sense of humour and mutual respect is not what you get from the shouting pundits & partisans on other political panel shows. We take a different approach from corporate media, so we're not asking for corporate media money. FU stands for...well, you know. But it also stands for For Us, because that's who we're building this for. If you like what we're doing with FU_Politics, please consider supporting us at patreon.com/funetworktv. Donations start at $1/month and every little bit helps. 

Note: We know even touching this topic is going to stir emotions in people with strong opinions on both sides of the issue. Feel free to comment but only if you can keep your discourse civil & your critiques of a person's opinions, not the person themselves. If we are made aware of comments that violate this, we will remove them.
