Sandra Bullock criticizes media's treatment of women. The "Minions" actress tells E! News, "I feel like it's become open hunting season in how women are attacked and it's not because of who we are as people, it's because of how we look or our age."

"I'm shocked - and maybe I was just naive, but I'm embarrassed by it. My son is getting ready to grow up in this world and I'm trying to raise a good man who values and appreciates women, and here we have this attack on women in the media that I don't see a stop happening."

"We need to stop. We are harming girls and women in a way, at a speed that it's scaring me," the mother of one adds. "Little girls are having the hardest time with bullying and the Internet - somebody with a very large hand and big voice needs to put a stop to it."

"You'd be surprised at the love that you have in our crazy industry," she says. "The women have bonded together and have sort of become this tribe of trying to take care of each other and be there for each other in a way, because the minute you step out it's an onslaught."

"I laughed when [People] said they're gonna be generous and bestow me this wonderful privilege, but I said if I can talk about the amazing women who I find beautiful, which are these women who rise above and take care of business and do wonderful things, and take care of each other, then I'm more than honored to be on the cover of this."
