Bob Barker

Last week I taught (again) Updike's "A & P" (1960), and I offered as proof of Sammy's (the narrator's) sexism the following comment:

You never know for sure how girls' minds work (do you really think it's a mind in there or just a little buzz like a bee in a glassjar?).

Watching this montage of Bob Barker at his most disgusting, we are reminded that television hosts, even legendary ones, were once equally sexist.
