Fooled By Fake Rundown, And Other Things Women Were Wrong About On The Newsroom

• that "Whoa there, little onion!" is an appropriate thing to say to someone she's deposing
• that "abudiate" is a word and no, I was not convinced by the explanation that it was a joke...
• ...since the same character also behaved as though "murdalized" is a word
• thinking that acting as an Occupy spokesperson on Will McAvoy's show is a good idea because Will might treat her like a person worth taking seriously
• syncing her phone to the car's Bluetooth and then immediately forgetting how Bluetooth works as soon as a call comes through
• taking shit off her sexist boss
• not knowing who Hank Williams Jr. is
• getting fooled by a fake rundown
• before reading the offensive name of Rick Perry's ranch, apologizing to the only non-white person in the room
• thinking Will might apologize on-air, to anyone, for anything
• tucking her jeans into her high-heeled booties
• contradicting someone for calling Will an asshole
• ending an attempt to butter up someone demanding an apology by saying, "I wasn't in the room, but I'm sure he said, 'Hell no, and who the fuck is Shelly Wexler?'"
• travelling all the way to an orphanage in Uganda and then not knowing whether Djibouti is near where she's supposed to be going next
• responding to being granted an interview with Mitt Romney by hugging his press officer
• that the word is spelled "devolopment"

• that a good response to trauma is to cut her own hair with kitchen shears

In the interest of equal time, a thing a woman was right about:
