Score one for feminism today: A WOMAN has finally been tapped to moderate a presidential debate. CNN's Candy Crowley will moderate the second debate, set for October 16 in Hempstead, New York. And if you're scratching your head right now and saying, "So?" this is news because a woman hasn't moderated a presidential debate in 20 years! And guess who helped make it happen? Emma Axelrod, Elena Tsemberis, and Sammi Siegel, three teenagers from Montclair, New Jersey who created a Change.com petition that went viral earlier this year: It's Time for a Woman Moderator. Girl power! Because maybe most men can lift heavier things, but there's no way in hell that they're any better at moderating a debate than women are. Asking questions? That's what we women DO, honey.Image may be NSFW.
