Sixteen female members of the media—including several from Fox News and CNN—signed an open letter Wednesday calling on Donald Trump to fire his campaign manager Corey Lewandowski for his "inexcusable, unprofessional behavior." Lewandowski was charged Tuesday with simple battery against ex-Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields; the campaign has vigorously stood by the top aide, at first suggesting it never happened before blaming Fields entirely for the incident. Among the signatories: Fox News contributors Katie Pavlich and Meghan McCain; CNN contributors Mary Katharine Ham and S.E. Cupp; and, interestingly, one of Fields's ex-colleagues, Breitbart News reporter Mary Chastain.
