Retweet of a sexist joke by Washington Post reporter sent rabid feminist colleague into a tirade, ultimately costing her own job

[Juke]

Began last Friday when a WaPo reporter retweeted this juvenile sexist joke (was he drunk?)

For which he apologized, but it's too late as he's been (justly) suspend for a month without pay


Laakiin his feminist co-worker didn't want to let him get off

To the point a colleague advised her to tone it down a bit; they went back and forth for a couple days. She wanted Jose to be reprimanded as well. Later on Jose blocked her




The executive editor sent out a memo to diffuse the situation and bring back order

 

[Juke]

She wouldn't let it go, Felicia criticized what in her view was the paper’s inconsistent social media policies and even called out the memo from the head honcho


Female co-workers told her to relax and publicly supported Jose


Yesterday afternoon she got fired for insubordination, attacking co-workers and violating workplace policy

Also when Kobe died in Jan 2020, Felicia was the person who brought up Kobe's SA case. Weigel (the guy suspend) defended her from criticism. She ended up getting suspended for a month. Her take below:


She sued her paper last year alleging the paper didn't allow her to cover SA cases because she was a survivor of SA herself. She lost the lawsuit as WaPo successfully argued the ban was put in place because her previous public statements in SA cases would appear as bias.

Outlandish episode for what’s supposed to be a newspaper of record

It's crazy how she flayed the fella who vouched for her in her time of need

Impressive coverage on your part.

It's been all over my feed since Saturday, a lot of other reporters I follow were surprised and giving their 2 cents

How’s this a gender war thread? Even then, gender wars have died out on sspot so it wouldn’t be plaq

She was making a lot of trouble prior to this episode, gotta be really nasty for all your leftist office mates to want you up outta there, the uncouth ranting was the last straw for them
