SHONDA RHIMES: We're not done with anything. We're-- we're fighting for women's equality in terms of how they take care of their bodies. We're fighting for, you know, women's health issues. We're fighting for just equal pay. I mean, the idea that women, women of color are never paid the same as men at this point is horrific and ridiculous.

There's so much more to be done in terms of making sure that the world's balance that is tipped so heavily in favor of white male privilege becomes a much more even playing field for everybody.

    When Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's hush money trial began in a Manhattan courthouse on Monday, cable TV news coverage of the case was as divided as America itself. A Reuters review of 2-1/2 hours of daytime coverage showed the distinctly partisan approaches of the Fox News Channel and MSNBC News to the trial taking place in the midst of an election campaign pitting the former president against Democratic President Joe Biden. Fox News, which is the country's most watched cable television network and leans Republican, gave significantly more air time to other national news including protests on U.S. college campuses against the war in Gaza.
