Misogyny online takes on Hillary (duh)

"In times past, this coarser conversation would have remained mostly personal and subterranean. But now we have a blogosphere, where no holds are barred and vituperative speech is prized.

There are no rules. And so far there is little recognition in the political and media mainstream of the teeming misogyny only a mouseclick away."
