The only people for whom the NYT is a “hostile workplace environment” are the journalists who did their jobs honestly and were piled on by their own colleagues, coordinating with an activist organization, for it.
So not people like Pamela Paul. Got it.
Let's look into the journalist Paul cited, EJ Rosetta. The more you look into her, the more awful she is and the more I'm convinced she is actually lying to push her agenda:
* She said that there was "only one word" in the English language for cis, and even then it
wasn't even derived from the same root as "cisgender.
*
Doxing a former friend for
calling her out on her anti-trans posts.
*
Fabricating articles full of unsourced, uncited news, about "cancel culture" and trans activists being unreasonable.
* Retweeting false flag troll ops in order to push an agenda.
Between that and the cherry-picked, out-of-context Rowling quotes, I think she's pushing her own agenda. It's a shame because you can effectively articulate your points without resorting to blatant deception. "Nobody deserves to be doxed for their political beliefs" or "I think she's done a lot of great work for the world and I think the bad outweighs whatever she said" is a perfectly reasonable point to make. But this feeds into the narrative about thoughtcrime and cancel culture, so she had to lie.
Let's all put aside our opinions and the Discourse for a second. On an objective lens, the Paul piece is bad journalism. The failing New York Times's defense of it shows how far the newspaper has fallen.
