LONDON -- UN Women Goodwill Ambassador and actress Emma Watson doesn't have time for the opinions of little men.

Nonetheless, Rod Liddle, associate editor of The Spectator and controversial English journalist, sparked outrage from others on her behalf when he penned an editorial for The Sun that belittles and trivialises Watson's contributions to the fight for gender equality.

And an epic response from another great British woman gives Liddle's rant the only reply it deserves. Watson shouldn't let the obtuse ramblings of a tabloid writer ruffle her feathers, anyhow.
