"advertisers inexplicably prefer to reach a male audience" I think that's got to do with the fact they tend to be male themselves, and it's easier to know what pleases a demographic if you're in it. This also explains they age group they tend to aim at: young to middle aged men.
More of a case of laziness than outright gender abuse if you ask me.
As for Williams feeling more comfortable with Jenkins, it runs along the same lines. He knows how Jenkins is likely to think better than he knows how fans think as his comment most clearly pointed out, if the business strategy didn't already. And I still think his sloppy emo response was intentionally so. He's probably used to using that kind of tack on other targets. Didn't someone mention them working on competitions events with a teenage group?
