No, I do not think anyone should eat on the underground public transport in a city full of rats.

This author was not in the wrong in calling an employee out.

I do not know the reason for the publication cancellation, but if the tweet is really the reason, then it's deplorable. And really weird.

The author is in the wrong because she was a COMMUNICATIONS PROFESSIONAL. How can that be your job and you don't know when to keep your mouth shut?

Just like Justine Sacco and her AIDs tweet.

The woman saw a Metro employee eating and tweeted about it. What leap of logic leads you to believe it's analogous to Sacco's behavior?[/quote]

Hmm let's see - the heads of corporate communications for two international aid organizations both are found to share the common characteristic of derogatory actions or opinions about black people. What could the connection be Sherlock?[/quote]
It's derogatory to tweet that a Metro employee is eating on Metro, which was the truth? You seem confused.[/quote]
