So it is permissible for journalists, when critiqued (substantively) to resort, repeatedly, to sexist terms? That's your defense?

Maybe he wanted to piss you off. It happens. Like you wanted to piss him off. You're coming off as whining.
-
I didn't want to piss him off (but thanks for telling me what I think). I wanted him to realize how embarrassingly shoddy this work is.
-
So make up your mind which it is.

Well, given Eli's response, I'm leaning to propaganda. In any case, the appropriate response is to rebut substantive critique. He didn't.
-
I get that you want men to be excused from dealing w/substance, and instead to be permitted to make sexist attacks. We've established that
-
You poor little victim.
-
I didn't say I was a victim. I pointed out Eli resorted to weak responses to substantive points. Just as you are. & you defending poor Eli!
-
Anyway, I hope you, like Eli, can one day aspire to substantive responses rather than normalizing sexism bc you don't have a strong response

Like you want points in the debate for something not germane to the substance of the debate.

Germane: Eli's obvious holes in piece. Not germane: a term codified in 19th C to treat women as less than men.
