Q: It’s been a generation since you founded Ms. magazine and became the face of American feminism, so why, at this late and supposedly liberated date, do we need GreenStone Media, an all-female, all-talk radio network that you just started with Jane Fonda?
The radio has become overbalanced toward the ultraright. AM talk radio does not reflect the fact that only 30 percent of the country, at the most, is anywhere near Rush Limbaugh.
But women, too, can be noisy right-wingers. Look at Ann Coulter.
If you create a movement, you create jobs and profits for someone to sell it out. That’s true of Phyllis Schlafly. It’s true of Ann Coulter; with both of them, I couldn’t invent a better adversary.
Who do you see as an ally? What about Hillary Clinton?
I disagree with her very much on the war. I feel otherwise she’s good on issues. But the war is huge.
Is Condoleezza Rice an ally of women?
I wish someone would write an article called “How Did Condoleezza Rice Get That Way?” She’s so separate from the welfare of the majority of Americans and especially the female and African-American communities to which she belongs.
So you see your radio network as the female version of Al Franken’s left-leaning Air America Radio?
No. No. They are very Washington-directed, very argumentative. What we are doing is more populist, centrist and community-oriented.
snip...
What sort of community can be formed by a radio network whose Web site denigrates women by promising something “lighter and more entertaining” than political talk shows, as GreenStone’s does?
That probably comes from the phrases women use when you do surveys. The message is they don’t want hostility, fighting, more heat than light.
do women want a show on the virtues of Internet dating? snip...

And Gloria is stuck in the '60s. She just does not realize how out of touch she is. Solomon was trying to help her, but ideologues will not be moved.
HA HA! That's hilarious. It couldn't possibly be that the people who are interested in keeping up with current events are people on the right and the people with radio talent are on the right. Nah!
Yep...on the money; and, the whole thing is funny. She never answered any of Solomon's questions, some of which were tough. Typical leftwing arrogant liar...
She's only in her 60's?
Hey Gloria....30% of Americans ARE nearer to Rush Limbaugh than the 2-3% that agree with you Feminazis
From the article in relation to Condoleeza Rice:
"She’s so separate from the welfare of the majority of Americans and especially the female and African-American communities to which she belongs."
And what's wrong with that?
"And Gloria is stuck in the '60s."
Well at least she believes in the institution of marriage now though.
This is absolutely hilariously clueless! It makes me wish that somebody would make a "This Is Spinal Tap" style movie about '60s has-beens like Steinem. It'd be funnier than "A Mighty Wind".
How does Gloria Steinem feel about all the aborted babies - female babies? She worships at the altar of abortion. Of course, the radicals are showly aborting themselves out of existence. She does not care about "women" - she cares about WOMAN. Her agenda is totally radical leftwing.
Yup, if Gloria's mother was into abortions like her, we wouldn't be having this conversation. It's always for someone else. This whole abortion thing is more a political plank to be promoted at all costs.
This is good,let's see Air America has what 80 or 90 listeners,and now they're going to have to share this market with GreenStone Media !!!
The irony being that more young people are pro life and that conservatives have more kids than libs and that the kids tend to vote pro life. Steinem is aborting her following out of existence.
I opened up the article and did two searches:
1. moslem
2. islam
Neither of those words appear in the article. That means that neither the interviewer nor the interviewee have the slightest interest in women's rights.
Yep...the only thing the left and the MSM (same thing, really) are interested in is attacking this great country. Whatta bunch of losers...
Time for a "Phyllis Schlafly Singlehandedly Saved America" Bump!!!
Nothing like the smell of estrogen in the morning!!!!
No, obviously it's not. Schlafly and Coulter opposed the anti-male "feminist" movement from the start so far as I know. No "selling-out" involved.
One could make a better case, though, that by denigrating household-manager mothers, Steinem (never married until perhaps recently in her old age for 'security') betrayed the more normal heterosexual women of America (kinda betrays the advertized National Organization *FOR* Women).
Also by helping to dump about 100million women on the competitive job market, Steinem betrayed the working folks of this country by driving down wages, serving corporate passive shareholders ( relatively 'the rich'), and helping make most families into 'two-wageslave' households -- at least those that they didn't help destroy by driving up the divorce rate.
Also, the very name 'feminism' is exclusionary and anti-male. They were never about gender fairness. They were always 'anti-male' neurotics who did a lot of damage to this country, and Northern Europe.
And that's just for starters re the vile headcase Steinem, and her degenerate movement.
"The irony being that more young people are pro life and that conservatives have more kids than libs and that the kids tend to vote pro life. Steinem is aborting her following out of existence."
Exactly, which is why they have taken over the public school system.
