    Jeet Heer Retweeted  💀 damned sinker  💀

    When I was at the New Republic I'd occasionally get emails from prominent people (not at the Times!) complaining about some of my junior colleagues. The emails were predicated on the false belief that I was in a position of power to sanction those colleagues & would do so.https://twitter.com/dansinker/status/1166334584247767043 …

     💀 damned sinker  💀 @dansinker
    Two different NYT writers in the last couple weeks trying to get people fired over mild Twitter criticism is so clearly the top of a gigantic culture problem iceberg over there.

        that you’re not naming them is part of why this behavior continues.

        I feel like there should be a well understood approach that these would be considered as "letters to the editor" and just published in full

        Lots of fragile egos running large publications, it would seem. Ironic, given what they do.

        Yeah I agree with this. Generally shaming an industry is not exactly useless but it ain’t worth much.
