Alright, so a Buzzfeed editor called for gun-control on Twitter in wake of Lafayette shooting. Dumb, against policy, but #bqhatevwr.
@EsotericCD @justkarl That's ridiculous. We had some of the best, if not the best, news coverage of marriage cases/development/aftermath.

@chrisgeidner@justkarl Think your coverage is good. Was reacting to Ben's post-Obergefell statement, which kinda spits on trad Xtians. -
@chrisgeidner@justkarl It may not have been intended that way, but did come across to many like a "your side no longer exists" POV erasure. -
@EsotericCD@justkarl I get that concern, and I am almost certain that wasn't Ben's intention. -
@chrisgeidner That's possible. I saw him absolutely not getting the point on Twitter afterwards. But that's another problem.@EsotericCD -
@justkarl@EsotericCD I've taken the "not two sides" phrase to mean that BuzzFeed, institutionally, has a view as to the correct outcome. -
@justkarl@EsotericCD Having that view, however, does not mean that BuzzFeed journalists should not cover the news where & how it happens. - 1 more reply

@chrisgeidner@EsotericCD When your EIC says there's only one side to an issue involving a 5-4 decision, maybe don't use "ridiculous."Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
