Addendum

Feministing just posted their response to the Matthews apology. They were even more upset than I, though they agreed that the apology would've been fine if he'd actually just made the one comment. However, they cited another Horrible Thing He Said that I hadn't heard, and it really pisses me off:

• In an interview with John and Elizabeth Edwards: "Behind every great man is a woman trying to kill him... What's this with equal marriages? Why do people try to marry their equals? What happened to the Stepford Wives, the good ol' days? [Audience boos.] Oh, how PC! How PC!"

What. The Fuck. How did that go unnoticed?
