State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki came under criticism from Fox's Shepard Smith on Thursday afternoon for the way she started her daily press briefing, and now she's under fire for a tweet she sent out Thursday night.
The tweet in question? At the end of a day filled with major world events including the attack on a Malaysian Airlines passenger jet and a ground invasion of Gaza, Psaki sent out a message touting a former colleague's op-ed in the Washington Post defending women's magazines and their mix of serious and fun articles. The title of the article is, "Being informed and fashionable is natural for women."
