Story here. Excerpt:
Facebook (FB) Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg has been on a high-profile publicity tour for her new book. She's been interviewed by CBS news magazine "60 Minutes," ABC's "Nightline" and CNN, among others.
...
Did Sandberg and Knopf, publisher of her book "Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead," request or choose interviewers based on the sex of the interviewer? Maybe Sandberg is hoping to give the female journalists some advancement with a plum interview. Or did news organizations pander to Sandberg and Knopf by suggesting a woman do the interviewing? The assumption is that female journalists would be more sympathetic to Sandberg's message.'
