On The Glenn Show, Glenn and Ann discuss the firing of New York Times editor Jill Abramson and the gender pay gap. They consider a Straussian explanation for political correctness. They next revisit the Clarence Thomas–Anita Hill story, about which Abramson wrote a book. Are women and African-Americans held to a different standard than white men in the workplace? Plus: What role will gendered expectations play if Hillary Clinton becomes president?
