I'm perfectly fine with a media hitjob on Ivanka. She paints herself as her father's conscience, a reasonable voice that can lead him down the right path, as a true feminist who cares so deeply about women's issues, yet she ignores her father rolling back protections on women's ability to fight for equal pay, the numerous accusations of him assaulting women, won't speak up in favor of Planned Parenthood, etc.
She used her place as her father's obviously favorite child to get herself and her husband powerful positions within the White House. She's not an innocent child being attacked by the media, she's earned all the scrutiny she gets.
This isn't someone attacking Obama's minor daughters for wearing skirts they deemed a little too short, this is a full grown woman who has spent her entire adulthood taking advantage of her father's wealth and position of power to get herself ahead.
