    These two lines stuck out to me:

    “I think as a woman, as women always do, I took the bulk of the abuse. People would say things like I was a ‘gold-digger’ or I ‘slept my way to the top’, which just couldn’t be further from reality,” she said.

    …and…

    “Women were the cruellest critics, she told the New York Times, with all of the in-person bullying, plus most of the phone calls and messages coming from women.”

    I take these two statements to mean that she’s saying women were the source of most of the abuse she’s receiving. Am I reading that right or is there an assumption of a larger, unmentioned, method of abuse besides phone calls and she’s receiving?
