Forbes reporter finds that women's sports receive less media attention than animals

Virtually met this writer for Forbes on Twitter. We were tweeting about how little media attention and exposure women's sports receives. He promised two nights ago to look into it, and he delivered fast. The sad results:

Women's sports get less media attention than animals.

Sadly, I don't find this surprising. But it's hugely depressing. It's also why I don't read Sports Illustrated anymore. The media says they don't cover women's sports because there isn't enough interest, but since it's the media that generates the interest in the first place, if they don't cover it, yes, they justify their lack of coverage. How to break this cycle of male idiocy????
