When Hillary Clinton clinched the Democratic presidential nomination on Tuesday, making her the first woman presidential nominee of a major party in U.S. history, multiple major newspapers chose to run with a front-page photograph of former President Bill Clinton.

The Seattle Times was one of the newspapers that ran with a photograph of Bill's stump speech, and they, along with others, were accused of sexism on social media for the editorial decision.

Talk about missing the mark....I guess they need to get cut bad by the falling shards off the glass ceiling before they finally get the damn spirit.

You know what?

"If you see something, say something." This is the only way to fix it.

5. if you combine

the picture line it can be easily misconstrued as Bill won the nomination to run for a 3rd term.
