Touched so many lives

2020-01-28 22:39:22.255469+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Erik Wemple writing in the Washington Post — The Post’s misguided suspension of Felicia Sonmez over Kobe Bryant tweets

Fearing for her safety at home, Sonmez checked into a hotel on Sunday night. In a phone call with Grant, she learned that she was being placed on administrative leave effective immediately. The Post’s concerns with the tweets, Grant had indicated in an email to Sonmez, were that they didn’t “pertain” to the reporter’s “coverage area” and that “your behavior on social media is making it harder for others to do their work as Washington Post journalists.”

Yeah.
