Yeah but he's just the worst outgrowth of a toxic culture. Vice had multiple editors who were writing about how the alt-right is bad and feminist issues (including the male chief editor of their women's section) who were secretly constantly emailing with breitbart people and alt-righters about how all feminists suck balls and giving them heads up on breaking news.

A lot of their presenters and on the ground reporters are great but their management is the same regressive poo poo as any other big media organization.

oh yeah i forgot about the alt right poo poo

Obviously neither of you read my post or were interested in actually correcting what you thought was a bad opinion, just dunking on what you thought was a bad person.

I didn�t say the reddit harassment didn�t happen, I said Vice said they wanted to include it to help other people. I didn�t say Wu was in the wrong, I�m saying their story is massively different from the other side in terms of what the reaction was. If Wu said no, absolutely not at *any point* about including that stuff, and Vice pushed her, that�s poo poo. If Vice avoided it at first, then came back and said "we want to include this," and Wu didn�t want it included, she has the right to ask them to pull the whole story.

But the story from Vice was Wu asked them to do stuff they don�t do for anyone and started maligning the author immediately. I feel like poo poo�s being left out, and if I don�t want to immediately call either side trash, then I�m loving well allowed to without being compared to someone who minimalizes sexual assault.

So again, go gently caress yourselves.

whats the point to drudging up old sexist drama that wu clearly wants to leave behind? it's clearly dumb sexism "but woman cant make there must be man make!!" and theres no point for vice to include it, like, at all unless they want to piss off naomi wu???

this poo poo's been building for weeks, if Wu had the ability or "right" to ask them to pull the whole story, it was obviously exercised and Vice didn't give a poo poo and published anyway. if you really care about the issue at hand and not your, er, posting integrity, here's Namoi's quotes about what she had deemed off limits:

you could also: not say poo poo

like nobody was clamoring for your (ignorant, uninformed, gleefully unaware) opinion, you're free to go look at her tweets on the matter which, to me, make it really clear that Vice was misleading at every step of the process and went against her wishes in a way that made her unsafe. barging in to claim how ~*above it*~ you are and maybe just give the billion-dollar media company a chance to air their side, amidst them actively destroying her income? god, what a hill to pick

vice's story is that she just freaked the gently caress out and declared open war on vice for absolutely no reason whatsoever, which seems dubious

it seems more plausible that vice are loving liars, especially since they went and got her Patreon taken down, which is totally unacceptable
