Interesting, if horrifying link, from [livejournal.com profile] fileg Silenced - the gender gap in the 2012 election coverage - https://upworthy-production.s3.amazonaws.com/nugget/4fcce669bb8b71000300086d/attachments/4th-Estate-women-in-media-infographic-final.jpeg

Football While I've updated the infographic from the previous post, I'm not reposting it until I'm sure there aren't going to be any more last minute withdrawals, what with poor Gary Cahill breaking his jaw (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18311737) and poor Ivica Olic doing something to his hamstring (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18322132). Then there's Andrea Barzaghli who is an injury doubt for the group games. Admittedly, Italy have the added problem that his replacement has recused himself from the squad in case he ends up in a court case. Oh my dear beloved Azzuri, you appear to be right in it, again.

You know it's bad when the coach says 'I'm okay if we're asked to withdraw for the good of football' (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18299713). I'm not sure if he's excessively honest, or has just seen exactly what his team is and realised they're going out in the first round.

And of course, Italy's first game just has to be against Spain :(
