    Normal people: I made an enormous, obvious mistake on national television, which was my fault. NY Times editorial board member: Why should I be criticized for a mistake someone else noticed? https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/11/opinion/racism-twitter.html …

        As you know, there's difference between criticism and a mob. That's what the whole cancel-culture discussion has been about.

        One, this isn't about an opinion, but about an egregious error of fact. Two, it's not really cancel culture when it's people whose opinions your employer doesn't care about.

        Yes, I’m sure some of the mob was truly nasty and shameful and no excuse - but that’s par and this reads like self-serving cover for the “trivial mistake” revisionism.

        The enormity of the mistake would get a person fired....if that person wasn’t behind an elitist firewall.

        I am dead certain that a non-black non-man would be criticized for mistake this sizable live on TV. This has nothing whatsoever to do w her sex or ethnicity. She's @NYT editorial board member, not some new Congress Rep or celebrity.

        I thought more criticism was pointed at William's and MSNBC for putting the stupid on screen
