Gloria Steinem was paid $20k to speak/q&a at my school by an alumni committee and it was an hour of students just tearing her to shreds about what a money grubbing POS she was. It was great.
You paid her to bash her? I bet she left with a smug smile
Alumni paid her to come (à la Meryl Streep and her ilk) and students were extremely upset.
