Why are women so mean to Judy Steinberg Dean?

From KATHA POLLITT: Alexander Stille got it totally right. Diane Sawyer grilled Judy Steinberg Dean in the most patronizing, hostile, sexist way: The most normal things were made to look strange: that she keeps her maiden name professionally (just like Diane Sawyer aka Mrs. Mike Nichols), that she doesn't follow the day to day of politics (like about 90% of the American population), that she LIKED getting a rhododendron for her birthday. Why are women journalists so mean to this woman, who is, like themselves, a talented professional? Tina Brown compared her to the mad wife in Jane Eyre.(Unmarried) Maureen Dowd went on and on about how wives are supposed to feel about their husbands.
