UPDATE: Drew Holden gets in on it, too.

It feels like only yesterday when Stephen L. Miller, aka @redsteeze, was pointing out Glamour’s hypocrisy when it comes to hardworking moms.
Probably because it was only yesterday:
Stephen L. Miller ~ Here's how Glamour mag treated Amy Coney Barrett's working motherhood, fwiw @maggieNYT
Well, as we told you earlier, NPR is just as enamored of Pete Buttigieg as Glamour is of Jen O’Malley Dillon:
NPR Politics ~ Pete Buttigieg, President-elect Biden's pick for transportation secretary, said he has "a personal love of transportation," recounting train trips on Amtrak while in college, and said he proposed to his now-husband, Chasten, in an airport terminal.
Hailing His 'New Voice,' Biden Introduces Transportation Choice Buttigieg

So, Gropey Joe thinks Buttgigged will make a fabulous Secretary of Transportation because he loved taking Amtrak train trips during college and proposed to his husband in an airport terminal, eh???
So it stands to reason that they’d be just as hypocritical as Glamour.
And as Miller found, they are:
Stephen L. Miller ~ Oh ... Huh
Andy Grewal ~ Okay, I know that pointing out media hypocrisy often gets tiresome, but this is just delicious. (h/t @redsteeze)
Works every time it’s tried.
Dr. Toothy, BA ~ The double standard here is astonishing.
Physics Geek ~ If it weren't for double standards, some people would have none at all.

Update:
This will no doubt come as a shock to you, but as it turns out, NPR wasn’t a fan of Trump Education Secretary Betsy DeVos’ “limited experience.”
From thread king Drew Holden:
Drew Holden ~ Quite the tone change, @NPR.
