One weird thing I notice is that most articles in mainstream media seem anti Ellen Pao. Not this one, it is sort of neutral but most are. I wonder why this is. I figure in trials like this coverage should be more neutral - it isn't like she is a murderer or something else that people usually prejudge negatively.

Well, it would make sense that if there were widespread cultural biases against women drawing attention to sexist behavior or challenging it; that those would be reflected in media coverage. But it would be rude to suggest that that might be the case.
