Ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a potential Democratic candidate in the 2016 presidential race, said that the media has a double standard for reporting on women when asked if one existed during a joint interview April 3 with Christine Lagarde, the first woman to run the International Monetary Fund.

Former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in saying that influential women face a double standard in coverage by the media.

I never expected anything but a double standard, Pelosi, a California Democrat, said in an interview with CNNs Candy Crowley airing today.

As one who has been the speaker of the House, Ive had to have a very thick skin about every kind of thing that has been thrown at me, Pelosi, 74, said in an excerpt released by CNN yesterday.

Clinton, a potential Democratic candidate in the 2016 presidential race, said that the media has a double standard for reporting on women when asked if one existed during a joint interview April 3 with Christine Lagarde, the first woman to run the International Monetary Fund.

We have all either experienced it or at the very least seen the double standard in media coverage, Clinton said at the Women in the World Summit in Manhattan, during which she and Lagarde discussed barriers to gaining equal access to education, health care and economic opportunity.

Clinton and Lagarde high five female political power

Michael Gross/State Department

Though Hillary Clinton demurred Thursday about any chance she'll run for president in 2016, she seemed every bit the candidate during an evening appearance.

The former secretary of state participated in a question and answer session with International Monetary Fund chair Christine Lagarde at the Women in the World forum in New York, and an enthusiastic audience seemed to see the pair as future world leaders.

Moderator and New York Times columnist Tom Friedman prodded the two women about whether they might run for larger roles -- Clinton for U.S. president and Lagarde for European Commission head.

"Madame Secretary is there any other job you'd be interested in?" Friedman asked Clinton, who smiled but did not take the bait.

"Not right now," she responded.

But she and Lagarde did provide the largely female audience with a memorable image, when the two clasped hands in a high-five celebrating women's political power.

During the discussion on a stage at Lincoln Center, Clinton advised women in the audience to focus on education and confidently pursue their career ambitions. She lamented what she called a double standard for women in the workplace, and criticized the media as being the biggest propagator of that imbalance.

Clinton also weighed in on topics ranging from Russian power to Iran negotiations. She said she had devoted an entire chapter to Iran in her upcoming book on her State Department tenure, adding that the increased sanctions on Iran during that time made Iranian leaders open to the preliminary nuclear deal signed late last year.

When asked about the political atmosphere in Washington, Clinton suggested things needed to change.
