Sharpton: Harris Was “Treated Badly By The Press” & “Held To A Different Standard” As A Black Woman


51 views

It’s over for Kamala Harris, but her failed campaign is not her fault – at least, according to Al Sharpton.

Reacting to the breaking news of Harris dropping out of the presidential race, Sharpton blamed…wait for it…the media and gender and racial biases,

“I think she was definitely treated badly by the press. 

I’ve never seen a candidate taken apart the way she was in the last several days. Yes, there were organizational problems. Yes, there were financial problems. You have people on that debate stage with no organization at all, and the press is not writing about it. 

Women are held to a different standard, and black women especially are held to a different standard.”
