@AGHamilton29 Their main goal is now the firing or serious suspension of @jdelreal for the crime of politely telling her that perhaps the way she chose to handle this -- so publicly and vindictively -- wasn't ideal. They want his head on a pike, too. — PolitiTweet.org

There is absolutely no question that the lengthy, multi-pronged Editor's Note attached to Taylor Lorenz's last WashPost article contains a demonstrably false factual claim -- even though it's the 3rd iteration of the correction -- but few in media care because of ideology. — PolitiTweet.org

@h3lf3n @synphilter Liberals are authoritarians who think you can only be a "real journalist" if you submit to and are employed by large media corporations. — PolitiTweet.org

@synphilter "Real journalists" spend multiple days publicly demanding that their newsroom colleagues be fired for social media infractions. — PolitiTweet.org

The repugnant, vindictive mentality current rampaging through the WashPost's newsroom and contaminating its reputation even worse than Taylor Lorenz's multiple-correction fiascos. AKA: the id of @FeliciaSonmez and the other HR-revering liberals like her: https://t.co/R6RYEVA4Wi — PolitiTweet.org

Someone try to argue that there's a difference between (a) these tweets from @FeliciaSonmez on her **fifth day** of this increasingly deranged, ugly public crusade to get her newsroom enemies fired, and (b) the video in the next tweet. https://t.co/i0R7qzYnFA — PolitiTweet.org

I'll bet any money that Felicia Somnez's lawyers told her she can and should do whatever she wants, because any action against her by WPost will be cast as "retaliation" for her having unsuccessfully sued them. They're petrified of her. They're punishing reporters on her demand. — PolitiTweet.org

@darkoarmy @davidmirandario @StellaMoris1 Brazil has a constitution and a vibrant judicial system that has repeatedly ruled against the government. Bolsonaro has authoritarian sentiments and leanings without doubt but the courts, media and Congress have freely worked against him. That's why I'm not in jail. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It has always been notable how talk about "diversifying newsrooms" never includes diversity on the basis of class background or education. As a result, all of the pathologies that fester and metastasize at elite colleges come each year to dominate media outlets more and more. — PolitiTweet.org

There's an important lesson -- probably several important lessons -- in this fact pattern, especially for employees of media corporations captive to the repressive and vindictive climate that prevails. You can't appease sociopaths. — PolitiTweet.org

This is fucking preposterous. — PolitiTweet.org

If CNN cleansed itself of hosts and on-air personalities who are hard-core DNC partisans, they'd have nobody left except Jake Tapper and a meteorologist if that still exists there. Think of all the ex-CIA operatives, FBI agents, and DOJ prosecutors whose jobs are at risk.😢 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

He "ridicules the committee members"!😱 What kind of journalist-monster speaks irreverently of politicians? Worse, he questions FBI's role ("conspiracy theories") and cites McCarthy-era SupCt cases on the limits on Congressional power ("illegitimate")! https://t.co/TyqerFCQNZ — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile, journalist @domphillips, who has so bravely covered industry invasion of the Amazon for the Guardian and others, remains missing along with the indigenous expert Bruno Araújo Pereira. *Far more* is needed from the Brazilian Govt to find them. https://t.co/SsVo2y7Z4m — PolitiTweet.org

It's National Press Freedom Day in Brazil. Tonight at 9 pm ET, @davidmirandario will speak to lawyer @StellaMoris1 -- wife of Julian Assange -- about the West's gravest press freedom threat: the ongoing persecution of Assange by the US/UK. In English, with Portuguese subtitles. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In Slack channels, media employees are discussing the Felicia Somnez insanity. They all know it will be a permanent mark against them if they weigh in to do anything but herald her bravery. That's the climate of fear at these outlets for everything: dissent-killing by design. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I should say: it's union *members* who do this. All across newsrooms, it's the unions which are demanding that HR and corporate bosses punish workers for a wider range of transgressions. The demands to punish @daveweigel & @jdelreal are coming from union members, not management. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is the critical point. It's not just that media unions "permit" punishment of workers when they are guilty of cultural transgressions. It's the unions that *demand* the punishment. Unions beg for a more empowered HR and corporate punishment regime. https://t.co/DCyKQUYyup — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The video below viralized because it's 100% the unleashed id of HR-worshiping liberal employees of big corporations, especially media corporations. They are sociopaths. The only fulfillment and purpose they get is from destroying others, including/especially fellow employees. https://t.co/vbX9k8pkC2 — PolitiTweet.org
