The Times thinks it was okay for her to spew hatred against all white people because she was harassed by some.

That's an absurd rationalization.

Exactly & they’ll use the same excuse when she does it as an employee.

“imitating the rhetoric of .. harassers”

Ok, got it. What Trump is doing is just fine.

Thanks, NYT, for clearing that up.

Yeah - she posts racist hatred and it’s the targets’ fault. What the hell, it isn’t any different from the usual NYT Bizarro World. She’ll fit right in.

She regrets it. Well that settles that. It does only work for one side when they express remorse.

They’ve probably given her a raise.

Identity politics.

I’m beating you up because a guy of your race stole my car stereo.

So has she now given everyone the new social media defense - I was being satirical. I was only imitating the vitriol leveled at me to make a point.

Yeah good luck trying that with anyone but the commies at the NY Slimes.

Meanwhile, the founder of Papa John’s is being purged because he quoted some other person’s use of the n-word to illustrate a point about the media in a private phone call. And Paula Deen is still a paraiah. Ever hear about Don Imus any more? Oh, but that’s different.

In other words: Look folks, she’s a double-minority; female, Asian, she may even be gay or gender questioning on top of that. So we can’t FIRE-fire her right now. She’d have our financial ass in a sling.
So we will turn the mirror around and tell all you Haters to take a good look at yourselves!

The Strzok defense:

Sure, our managers and leaders sound like real bastards, but our organization is so righteous, neutral and above-board, you have NOTHING to worry about

What a joke!!

Substitute “black” or “gay” for “white” in any of her posts and she’d never find a job in journalism in this country.

So according to the NYT, if you are a white person and a bunch of blacks call you a racist name it’s OK to call them the N-word.

So we can’t FIRE-fire her right now.

They CAN fire her ass anytime, easily. She engaged in public behavior detrimental to the company interests. employment contracts are full of such clauses. I have no doubt about that.

I also expect this woman will never work at NY Times - but NY Times is entering a desperate but quiet ass-covering mode. Their first response is: "what's the big deal?" but they know a real shit-storm is coming.

NYT putting itself in a precarious position - if they fire some white employee for racist tweets/behavior, they are opening themselves up to a lawsuit by not canning Ms. Jeong. They should just dump her and move on.

Who cares. NY Times is rapidly becoming a local newspaper. Won’t be long until they will be offering it for free at the grocery store
