Probably some of that, too!

Still, she does work for Fox, and has for many years now. Tony was such a nice guy, and very friendly behind the scenes as well as on camera. Maybe she was blinking back tears. Like a lot of feminists I’ve known, they think it’s weak of them to cry. Sometimes, though, even men should have a cry.

That’s very possible.

Greta has done a pretty good job of staying fair and balanced at Fox.

She’s taken some hits from the MSM for it too.

I thought she was fighting tears, too, AB.

I think many of us women feel we are in a man's world and to cry is not acceptable to us in a way a man could do it and would be heralded as a “new man” and in touch with his feelings and thought to be confident and not unsure of his masculinity. Women on the other hand would be dismissed as being emotional if they did it.

I always remember a trailer for the Apprentice when Martha Stuart was hosting it and a woman said she felt so embarrassed she could cry and Martha's retort to her was “women in business do not cry”.

There is unfortunately still a double standard here and I am certainly not a feminist in any shape or form.
