Light Dawns on the Media's Ignorance of Male DV Victims

My latest column, which will also appear today on Wendy McElroy's ifeminists.com points out the hypocrisy of Western media when covering the issue of domestic violence, and how they ignore male victims even when the evidence is in their own faces. Drawing on nationally syndicated columnist Armstrong Williams' recent admission of his own cultural bias, I feel it is time for all media to examine their own cultural biases when reporting on domestic violence. It shouldn't be a gender issue.
