Sandra Fluke On The View

During her “View” appearance, Fluke also said she wanted to clear up two major misconceptions. Firstly, she pointed out that the policy she supports doesn’t involve taxpayers footing the bill for birth control but private insurance companies doing so. Secondly, she noted that Limbaugh isn’t the only media personality to disrespect her. She directed viewers to watchdog website Media Matters, which has compiled a list of media types, including Glenn Beck, who have disparaged Fluke.

“I think it is really important for us all to understand that this was not one person who went crazy and made 'funny,' outrageous statements,” Fluke said. “This is evidently a segment of our political commentators who think that it’s acceptable in today’s society to say these things about women.”
