60 years ago, it was. The days when a female journalist was considered a contradiction in terms is long past thanks to the pioneering efforts of women like Martha Gellhorn. Today she is not considered a misfit. Her work as a war correspondent covering the Spanish Civil War to the U.S invasion of Panama at age 81 earned her the respect of the media world. Only when the Bosnian war broke out in the 1990's did she concede she was to old to go.
All politicians are bores and liars and fakes.
Throughout her career, she focused on war's civilian victims and those fighting to survive. The marriage lasted five years, ending when Gellhorn left Hemingway, the only of his wives to do so. I've had a wonderful life.
