Newstory "softens" Little League mom attack

CJ writes "Just another example of the double standard in the media based upon gender here. This a sympathetic article the Boston Globe ran on a mother who attacked and kicked an 11 year old boy at a little league game. The paper is highly sympathetic to the defense attorney’s arguments here; in fact it is the basis of the entire article. If the gender were to be reversed here, a father would likely be portrayed as a monster that should be locked up until trial based on a "dangerous hearing." This woman was released on her own recognizance... trust me, this just doesn’t happen for men in MA."
