The "Wage Gap" Alive Among Those Who Speak Against It

This wage gap at the White House is not new. The UK's Daily Mail reported in
2012:


The gender differential has been noticed outside of the White walls, and Dee
Dee Myers- the first female press secretary who worked under the Clinton
administration- feels it is not doing Mr Obama's team any favors.

'Women are Obama's base, and they don't seem to have enough people who look
like the base inside of their own inner circle,' Dee Dee Myers told The New
York Times.

"The hefty salaries, like Ms Jarrett's, were not the norm, however, as the
median salary for women in the White House is $60,000 which is 18 per cent
less than their male peers whose median salary was $71,000."

Doah!
