Well, sure, there’s that. But if they’re gonna publish him, why let him tell a lie in paragraph 2?https://twitter.com/tombellin/status/989331401727193088 …
Jamison Foser added,
I mean set aside what’s right and good and respectful of readers; big media companies clearly don’t give a damn about any of that…
… That’s just lousy writing and editing. Every reader who knows anything about this knows that’s a lie right there at the top of the piece.
So that’s a pretty clear signal that this is not an honest piece of work, and it’d be best to stop reading.
TL;DR: I’d find praise for Kevin Williamson as a brilliant, fearless writer more compelling if he wasn’t such a shitty, frightened writer.

Williamson is free to argue his comments were not sincere. He cannot honestly suggest he did not make them. https://twitter.com/taylorgrayson/status/989343661929484288 …
Jamison Foser added,
Anyone else noticing the similarities between KW’s expressed opinions and incel rhetoric? Why does Williamson deserve multiple public platforms for his dangerous opinions about women?
He's definitely working from the same imply-and-deny playbook they love. Not sure I want to get familiar with their specific content enough to evaluate whether he's just coincidentally misogynist or dogwhistling specifically to them.
