You may not know, but I am also a writer. Recently I have become
fascinated with newspapers from the turn of the century (the Century
before this one. :-)
This is a fantastic article called Sob Sisters: The Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Cultures
by Joe Saltzman, Director, Image of the Journalist in Popular Cultures (IJPC). As you read the article you will learn that Sob Sisters refers to women
reporters. They were usually given the stories that would make you
sob.
Read for yourself and enjoy!
