Ossoff’s Natalie Harp remark exposes the gender-politics double standard
Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdawi argues that Jon Ossoff’s jab at Natalie Harp highlights lingering misogyny in political discourse, noting conservatives’ defense of Harp often centers on gender rather than conduct while treating her as a controversial figure tied to Trump. The piece frames the debate as less about hostility to a woman and more about power, professionalism, and how gender shapes coverage. It also touches on Trump’s attacks on a female journalist and briefly rounds up other items in the week’s Patriarchy column, including New York’s Parents’ Night Out and ongoing humanitarian and geopolitical crises.
