      These 2 tweets from @Gizmodo writer @thetomzone are undeniably false & defamatory: that @mtracey was fired from TYT & is paid by Fox. But since the object of his lies is someone disliked by the cool kids of Brooklyn digital media, there's zero need to correct or retractpic.twitter.com/WK2teAAKnQ

      When a journalist clique so openly and even explicitly stakes an entitlement to lie about people - in the most demonstrable & blatant ways - provided that the person they're lying about is sufficiently disliked, they deserve all the scorn and loss of credibility they get.

      If you're a journalist who sanctions or is too afraid to condemn outright lying by your colleagues because the target of the lies is marginalized or disliked by popular cliques, please don't express bafflement or anger that people hold journalists & journalism in contempt.

      Glenn Greenwald Retweeted Kenny Pryde

      Right - that's the other point: mocking someone for being poor, having a low salary, having to live with their parents is considered taboo & ugly: for good reason. But in this case, they cheered it because the dislike the person targeted with this derisionhttps://twitter.com/Kenny_Pryde/status/1136278654022037506 …

      As if the amount of money a journalist was earning was somehow connected to their credibility, contacts or accuracy. 'Look! Look! He's too poor to be taken seriously!' Pathetic.

      Replying to @ggreenwald

      Just for the record I don't live with my parents, the Gizmodo freak's depiction of my income is not accurate, and I don't regard myself as poor. But the point stands: they're willing to employ rhetoric they'd normally deplore against anyone outside their little Cool Kid club

          And this type of rhetoric/derision - which prompted the response - is OK? (To be clear: None of it is.)https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1134204788143529984 …

          You and @ggreenwald are two of the only journalists I trust and follow. Thank you both for your integrity and honesty in these strange times.

          Actually, they deploy that rhetoric against the right daily....... You've just happened to step out of the box for a moment and are now experiencing what the rest of us get for not being on the left.
