Susan Faludi on Hillary

In today's Times: The Fight Stuff

Very interesting analysis, except for persistent references to a methaphorical "umpire" as the officiant in a boxing match. Considering the topic of the article, this is an ironic and almost incredible mistake. I wonder if some copy editor at the Times meant to undermine her by letting this stand. (For those who don't know, it's a referee who oversees a boxing match, an umpire officiates at baseball games.)

More likely the Times copyeditor isn't a sports fan.
