The issue risks exposing the president's character and gender relations as he campaigns for a second term.

Double standard in Flinn case fuels feminist backlash
The author argues that media and political sympathy shield Lt. Kelly Flinn, a female B 52 pilot accused of adultery and disobeying orders, while male service members facing similar charges face harsher scrutiny. It contrasts public discourse, cites polls, cites cases at Aberdeen Proving Grounds and Ft Leonard Wood, and questions motives of feminists and editors.

Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Claude Lewis analyzes the racial divide evident in U.S. media coverage of high profile trials. He contrasts the O J Simpson case, the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman, and civil damages, with Timothy McVeigh’s 1995 Oklahoma City bombing trial, noting far less sensational attention despite McVeigh’s 168 deaths.
