The Numbers Behind Maureen Dowd's 21-Year Long Campaign Against Hillary Clinton

[bold][italic]72 Percent Of Dowd Columns Negative Towards Clinton[/italic][/bold]

For more than twenty years, [italic]New York Times[/italic] columnist Maureen Dowd has been attacking Hillary Clinton from a shallow well of insults, routinely portraying the former secretary of state and first lady as an unlikeable, power-hungry phony.

Media Matters analyzed 195 columns by Dowd since November 1993 containing significant mentions of Clinton for whether they included any of 16 negative tropes in five categories (listed in the below methodology). 72 percent (141 columns) were negative towards Clinton -- only 8 percent (15 columns) were positive. The remaining 20 percent (39 columns) were neutral.

She also wrote really negative, snarky columns against Teresa Heinz Kerry.

She's a jealous cunt.

"...routinely portraying the former secretary of state and first lady as an unlikeable, power-hungry phony..."

Add narcissistic cunt and I'd say she is 100% spot on!

She's never been married and now so old even a troll won't fuck her. I hear she has worn out 11 vibrators.

She is the same dumb bitch who says she tried smoking pot in Colorado for the first time then said she had a really bad trip.

Uh, duh, shouldn't have done a whole brownie first time bitch.

Aren't most of her columns about anybody negative?

by Anonymousreply 5June 19, 2014 10:08 AM

I don't know if she writes negatively about everyone. It does seem that she enjoys knocking down other women in general, not just Hillary.

She seems to be one of those women who thinks that in tearing down other women she will ingratiate herself with men. It's sad and gross.

Stopped reading her years ago. Nasty shallow stuff that passes for wit in sororities. Now reading some of these comments I see I haven't missed anything.

Maureen Dowd should be sacked. What a cunt.

She likes to insinuate the male Dem candidates are gay, has she ever gone there with Hillary?

by Anonymousreply 9July 13, 2014 6:11 AM

She's a woman that hates other women, or at least other successful accomplished woman.

R6, I've read analysis of her misogyny that suggested it's because she was raised Catholic, and believes in original sin. Eve tempted poor innocent Adam into eating the apple, and therefore all women are devious and can't be trusted.

She's very talented in turning a phrase, but she 's vapid.

The New York Times is a joke

R3 she named each vibrator after a male member of the Kennedy family.

by Anonymousreply 14November 7, 2018 11:35 PM

R4 the column was widely used as right wing propaganda . She also lied and tried to cast blame on the man who legally sold her the gummies. It turns out he had repeatedly told her not to eat it like candy.

R9 her favorite narrative is that of the effeminate, lactating male democrat. You know she desperately wants to use the F word to describe them but wouldn't dare. Unlike republican males who are strong and macho, just like Maureen's drunken cop father. As for Hilary, she loves mentioning how Hilary is essentially a man .

Dumber than someone who thinks she smoked the brownie?

Maybe she and Maggie Haberman can elope to Cuba.

The NYTimes hasn't been fair and balanced for years. They're basically Faux Noise.

Dowd disses DL fetish. Bad Maureen bad!

Nasty, backward homophobic woman. Read her column referencing "truckstop " sex in regards to gays. Very revealing about her mindset.

[quote]But then I felt a scary shudder go through my body and brain. I barely made it from the desk to the bed, where I lay curled up in a hallucinatory state for the next eight hours. I was thirsty but couldn’t move to get water. Or even turn off the lights. I was panting and paranoid, sure that when the room-service waiter knocked and I didn’t answer, he’d call the police and have me arrested for being unable to handle my candy.

R23 the twist is that it was probably a regular brownie. Dowd is just mentally ill.

by Anonymousreply 24November 8, 2018 3:46 AM

R23 " But then I felt a scary shudder go through my body and brain.. I was panting and paranoid ". Isn't this what happens to Maureen when she sees one of the Clinton's on television?

by Anonymousreply 25November 8, 2018 3:49 AM

Anyone holding onto a grudge like she does, is mentally ill, R24

by Anonymousreply 26November 8, 2018 1:22 PM

R19 They don't care who is in office because it won't affect their charmed lives. In any case the "journalists " at Fox News and the New York Times all attend the same parties and socialize with each other at the end of the day .

Nothing insightful to say; tries to fill her column with fluff about how so well connected she is, but she's nothing but a has been.

by Anonymousreply 28November 8, 2018 8:08 PM

she's friends with Sally Quinn another embittered, nasty and neurotic Washington socialite

R19 new york times is more insidious because they present themselves as neutral
