Kellyanne Conway: Cooper's Eyeroll at Me an Example of Sexism I Face From the Media

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway suggested Thursday that Anderson Cooper's viral eyeroll at her was an example of sexism that she faces constantly from the media.

Conway came on Cooper's CNN show Tuesday night to discuss President Trump's firing of FBI Director James Comey.

Upon hearing Conway make a quick boast about Trump's surprising win in Michigan last November, the CNN host ostentatiously rolled his eyes. The moment blew up across the Internet, with anti-Trump sites cheering Cooper for his display.

"Let me tell you something," she said when asked for her reaction on "Fox & Friends." "Hillary Clinton is in search of sexism as a lame excuse for why her disastrous candidacy and campaign lost. I face sexism a lot of times when I show up for interviews like that."

"Could you imagine rolling your eyes, having a male anchor on the network roll eyes at Hillary Clinton, at somebody, a female representative spokeswoman for President Obama or President Bill Clinton? I think not," she added.
