“However, after the reaction she got at the Grammy Awards, some are asking if this was less about Madonna and more about how we treat women who are growing older,” she explained. After several clips of Madonna at the Grammys throughout her career were aired, Deborah hit the viewers with some statistics. She asserted that 2 in 3 women over the age of 50 experience discrimination. The ABC journalist also advised that parents need to talk to their children about ageism and not the women coping with it.
