The British press has gone from topless models to penis jokes about presidential candidates. At least that junior high humor stays largely on Twitter, where the filters come off and journalists’ truly biased viewpoints come out.
Ben Jacobs, political reporter for the Guardian, tweeted out this crass joke aimed at GOP Presidential candidate Donald Trump, mid-debate Tuesday night.
Is Donald Trump using poll numbers as a surrogate for measuring penis size right now?

Perhaps Jacob’s fascination with male anatomy jokes is not surprising after all. When he was a writer for the Daily Beast, Jacob had a history of slamming conservatives for being “anti-gay” and praised Michael Sam for being the first “openly-gay” NFL player.
