Carly Fiorina accused the hosts of 'The View' of making sexist comments about her appearance by Maxwell Tani on Nov 1, 2015, 4:52 PM Advertisement
 Carly Fiorina is accusing the hosts of "The View" of espousing sexist double standards. Earlier this week, the hosts of the popular daytime television show weighed in on a joke that Fiorina made during the third Republican debate about being advised to smile more. Host Michelle Collins said that Fiorina's smile made her look "demented," while host Joy Behar said that it would be a "good Halloween mask." Appearing on Fox News on Sunday, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO accused the hosts of having a bias against conservatives, and said that there's no way the hosts would have made those jokes about Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton's appearance. "Yeah, I think there's a double standard," Fiorina said. “There is nothing more threatening to the liberal media in general, and to Hillary Clinton in particular, than a conservative women. So of course there’s a double standard." "What these women represent is a set of liberal feminists who believe that if you do not agree with them on their liberal orthodoxy that you don't count." Fiorina also challenged the hosts of the popular daytime television show to make those jokes to her face. “It will not stop me, it will not scare me, and maybe the ladies of ‘The View’ if I come on again, let’s see if they have the guts to say that to my face,” Fiorina said. As Clinton during her bid in 2008, Fiorina has faced some strange and controversial comments from high-profile figures about her appearance during her time on the campaign trail. In an interview with Rolling Stone earlier this year, Trump said that Fiorina's face was un-presidential. “Look at that face,” Trump recently told Rolling Stone an interview. “Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?”
