I think harassment over the internet is a hosed thing but I will agree with Mr. Creator that people just need to loving walk away from Twitter once in a while

All these journalists on twitter losing their loving minds over this chick getting fired from the guardian has been the best part of this so far.

Some of these Twitter people are saying "you can't get fired if you're a freelancer" and they seem to be missing the implication of a publication like The Guardian saying "we're not interested in your services anymore" also they think The Guardian is only bending to loving "gamer" pressure which is incredibly dumb. it's far more likely the guardian got pissed off that a freelancer was putting one over on them with an article defending someone whose salary they pay

if you're somewhat of a big deal and you don't like having people harass you on twitter get somebody else to run your account for you. there's people that will readily do that for you so you don't have to sift through poo poo to get something good out of it. I don't understand why most of these people complaining about harassment don't do that.

Apparently she technically quit the Guardian. Of course my guess is she was probably persuaded to quit/leave gracefully because she and the rest of the sj crew seem really upset about it.

It's hilarious to me, since conflict of interest is one of of the first things you learn about as a journalism major. There's a line, and if you're dancing around it you're not fulfilling your obligations as an unbiased observer.

I think I'mma dust off my resume and apply to be a game journalist so I too can be mocked. My main objective though is to program and design a bot that will do the reviews for me. Basically mad-libs for game reviews. Then reveal years later I never played a game and my program did it all for me after I simply typed the game name and a few pronouns for characters.

She claimed that her piece originally included a disclosure about her connections to Zoe and Anita but that the Guardian decided it wasn't necessary and omitted it. The only plausible reason for the Guardian to be pissed about this would be if she loving lied about them knowing of her conflict of interest.

That this person couldn't handle their workload, and also throws in their gender because that matters? quote:At some point, when you're being asked to be a woman, a journo, a dev, a writer, you're gonna flip out, okay.

Did the original draft simply mention that she knew Anita/Zoe or did it also mention that Maya (AKA Legobutts, Anita's and Zoe's PR Manager) was funding her Patreon? Honestly I think we're going to see a lot of Patreon Laundering going on in the near future.
