[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She is probably not wrong about that. It’s probably an awesome spot for the Weigels of the newsroom. Less so for others. [/quote]

He was suspended without pay over an RT that he deleted and apologized for

This would have been fine for her too if she'd tweeted two, three, even four times - and then had stopped spending day and night attacking her colleagues and RTing people calling her a hero[/quote]

^ Which is not to say there's no favoritism at the Wash Post. I've only been full time staff at one publication - a really big one! you'd be impressed - and there sure as heck was there. It was infuriating, demoralizing, all the things you'd imagine. I have to expect every newsroom - every office, for that matter - has favorites who can do whatever the heck they want, and everyone else who isn't quite as special. It stinks to be on the non-special side of that.

But even if you're mad, you still can't throw a nonstop tantrum on Twitter, keep going after your boss says to stop, and expect you're going to come out still employed.[/quote]
