Mika: Where I Used To Work, Successful Women Were Sabotaged By Leaks—Maybe By Other Women!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Whoah! What place was Mika Brzezinski talking about? On today's Morning Joe, Brzezinski said that at a place where she used to work, "any woman who did anything or got to the top immediately had something revealed to the press or online or whatever that would bring them down." And whatever happened to solidarity among the sisters? Mika added: I suggest that some might even argue that it's women doing that."

We don't know which employer Mika had in mind, but before coming to MSNBC, by far Brzezinski's longest stints were at CBS.

I've got nothing against women. I'm married to one and have two daughters whom I love.

But my own experience in the work place leads me to the conclusion that they are better at backstabbing, and do it more frequently, than men do.

This is just anecdotal, so I'm not stating that it is an absolute truth, but there it is.

There have been all kinds of articles over the past week or two about “Queen Bee” syndrome where female bosses are found to be more hostile to the women who work for them than male bosses.

And they will try to castrate the men who work for them, too.

I have worked with all women and I have worked with all men.

I’d take all men any day!!

(And I am female, hopefully the screen name makes that clear, but just in case LOL)

She is still bitter about being fired from CBS.

Mark..It seems to me that of late, you have featured Mika in an inordinate number of clips. Logically, there are only two possible reasons for this:

1. She utters an incredible number of stupid things every day, or
2. You have somehow become infatuated with Mika, and use every opportunity to gaze upon her face and form..

If it is indeed the latter, here's a possible cure: Fr the next 30 days, just listen to the audio...NOT the video of the show..

Someone posted something yesterday that was one of those “core truths” that people overlook.

Our Constitution, legal system, and societal restrictions on behavior are almost entirely focussed on restricting the methods that MEN use to compete (retrictions on lying, cheating, physical violence, etc), and provide no recourse for the methods that women use to compete (gossip, character assassination, whisper campaigns, etc).

LOL, Ken. I can honestly say that if I’m infatuated, I’m entirely unaware of it. I really do just let the chips fall where they may. Maybe next month it will be Joe’s turn!

If a recognition of Mika’s true abilities ever gets out ... she might have a career flipping burgers. In her own way she is just as creepy as her father and apparently not too bright.

Ditto to everything you said. The all-female group I once worked with was dysfunctional to the max----deceitful, backstabbing, and jealous of accomplishment.

This is just anecdotal,

I'd agree with you. Male politics can be nasty, too, but they're more confrontational and less personal.

In my personal experience (your mileage may vary), there's nothing nastier politically in a workplace than a group of women without enough work to keep them 100% occupied.

I have no problem working with all women (I’m a man). They spend all their time trying to stab each other in the back, and they’re too busy doing that to bother with me.

No “maybe” about it. If she had spent a couple of months in the clerical pool in any large office in the country perhaps she’d realize that.
