      Guys Jonathan Weisman emailed me to say he thinks I owe him an “enormous apology.” The audacity and entitlement of white men is fucking incredible.

          I agree. I’m glad she alerted his employer. Who else should be notified? Police? FBI?

          Because they've spent their lives being told they're entitled to more than other people and believed it. If you embarrass them they can only conclude it's not their own fault, never mind that they did it to themselves.
