Joyce Alene / @joycewhitevance: This is unacceptable @SecPompeo. You work for us & we expect the press to have access to you. Explain what happened here & how you intend to correct it. This is what dictatorships do to the press, not how our country's officials behave. https://twitter.com/...

Cases such as this are investigated by the High Representative. https://twitter.com/...
Ashton Pittman / @ashtonpittman: Mike Pompeo, like Donald Trump, has the instincts of a true despot. Retaliating against one NPR reporter because a different NPR reporter asked you a question you didn't like—and then noted your abusive rage at her to the public—is the marking of a weak, petty tyrant. https://twitter.com/...
Brian Klaas / @brianklaas: Pompeo bullied an NPR reporter for doing her job. Then he lied about her. And now he's banned her colleague from covering him as a form of retribution for simply asking a basic and reasonable question. This is the kind of stuff you see under despots, not in democracies. https://twitter.com/...

Yashar Ali / @yashar: This is absolutely outrageous. You don't even have to agree with @feliciasonmez tweets to agree that for her to be suspended for tweeting out a newsstory and then talking about being harassed for her tweets is an insane reaction. https://twitter.com/...
David M. Perry / @lollardfish: This account worked hard to magnify the harassment of a sexual assault survivor and now he's boasting about having gotten her suspended. I want to be clear that only one person is behaving badly here and it's not Felicia. https://twitter.com/...
Max Tani / @maxwelltani: Hard to see how this, from the paper's top editor, would reassure someone thinking about bringing WaPo a serious story about sexual misconduct/misbehavior https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Staci D Kramer / @sdkstl: Streisand Effect at work https://www.nytimes.com/...
Sopan Deb / @sopandeb: Wa Po's own media reporter, @ErikWemple on his employer suspending a reporter over Bryant tweets: “What did Sonmez do to deserve this brushback? She tweeted out a very good story from the Daily Beast.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
@jimrutenberg: Sure would be great if @washingtonpost would offer a little more context on its decision here https://twitter.com/...
Olivia Nuzzi / @olivianuzzi: News organizations should protect their journalists, not acquiesce to the mob when it comes for them. The Washington Post not only failed Felicia Sonmez, but set a dangerous precedent.
Carla Sosenko / @carlasosenko: The @washingtonpost should be ashamed of itself and reinstate Felicia Sonmez immediately. People do not become retroactively perfect once they die. Bryant's death is a horrible tragedy but the assault case is part of his legacy. This is censorship. https://www.thewrap.com/...
Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: Suspended??? That's a ridiculous overreaction. And people who email abuse to reporters have ZERO right to privacy. https://thedesk.matthewkeys.net/ ...
Helen Ubias / @notesfromhel: Putting aside the timing of her tweets, I've aways wondered (in my own experience) why readers who send hateful, threatening and abusive emails are afforded such an undeserving expectation of privacy. It just empowers their abusive behavior. https://twitter.com/...
Stacy Washington / @stacyontheright: Why protect the ones attacking her? They deserve to be outed for sending death threats. I cannot agree with this. https://twitter.com/...
Peter Sterne / @petersterne: It wasn't just @feliciasonmez. A number of journalists tweeted links to articles about the Kobe Bryant rape allegations yesterday. But only the Washington Post saw fit to suspend its reporter.
Marlow Stern / @marlownyc: as the writer of the kobe rape case story she tweeted out, this is completely insane. #metoo but also let's suspend a brave survivor of sexual assault for pointing out the facts? https://www.mediaite.com/...
Dylan Matthews / @dylanmatt: A fun story is that while I was planning to leave anyway, the Post technically fired me bc, after Ezra tweeted something asking people to follow Wonkblog on Twitter, I jokingly quote-tweeted it with “NEVER” @feliciasonmez is the best and this is idiotic https://www.mediaite.com/...
Ben Collins / @oneunderscore__: A lot of people were online yesterday refreshing their phones, desperate for somebody to blame for something inexplicable. A lot of them were driven, algorithmically or otherwise, to this outrage mob. This is the Post giving into it, and feeding their reporter to the wolves. https://twitter.com/...
Mark Di Stefano / @markdistef: I love that no matter what happens - like a beloved sports legend dies - the online conversation arc will always bend towards a fight about ethics in journalism
@libbycwatson: I mean just as a matter of principle, if you send me an email and we don't agree that it's off the record, I can do what I want with it. if you send me an abusive email it is within my rights to tweet about it
@libbycwatson: regardless of the rule, it is so clear that wapo could have exercised discretion on whether to fucking SUSPEND her over it. they should side with their reporter over the nutters sending her abusive emails. it is that simple
@libbycwatson: what wapo did to felicia sonmez is so shameful—even if the ostensible reason for suspending is that she tweeted the names of people emailing her. media organizations are still so susceptible to gamergate style campaigns from right-wing psychos (who fueled the outrage against her)
Christina Cauterucci / Slate: How Media Outlets Are Acknowledging (and Not Acknowledging) Kobe Bryant's Rape Case
Jonathan Myerson Katz / @katzonearth: If the @washingtonpost really did this, it's disgusting. Who is it supposed to assuage? The people who sent her death threats? They'll forget about it in a day anyway. https://twitter.com/...
Joshua Benton / @jbenton: Nine different stories by @washingtonpost reporters yesterday made reference to the sexual assault allegation against Kobe Bryant. But a reporter who tweets a story about it w/o any commentary gets suspended for “poor judgment that undermined the work of her colleagues”? https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Max Tani / @maxwelltani: This is insane and clearly an overreaction by WaPo. The rape allegation is a part of Kobe's legacy. Punishing a reporter for pointing that out is confusing and a bizarre choice for an outlet that does serious reporting on harassment and misconduct. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ ...
Elon Green / @elongreen: yessssssssss, tell me more about the legend of Marty Baron https://twitter.com/...
Stuart McDonald / @travelfish: ‘The tweets displayed poor judgment that undermined the work of her colleagues.’ Yeah, ahhh nope. https://twitter.com/...
Lindsey Barrett / @lam_barrett: this is flat-out obscene and would be if it happened to anyone, but it's all the more atrocious given what sonmez has already gone through with her own sexual assault, as david points out. https://twitter.com/...
Chad Loder / @chadloder: I was bothered by her timing. But she tweeted facts. This is what journalists do. https://twitter.com/...
@davidklion: This is especially troubling considering that a few months ago, Sonmez bravely went public with the details of her own sexual assault at the hands of a fellow journalist in China, and was smeared by the usual gang of unaccountable reactionary pundits for doing so.
@davidklion: NYT and the Atlantic will do nothing to their employees who smear a reporter (relying on a debunked report by their friend) on Twitter; meanwhile WaPo will suspend that same reporter for tweeting facts about Kobe Bryant and setting off the MAGA crowd. It's sickening.
Matthew Gertz / @mattgertz: This response from the Post is shameful and incoherent. If the editors feel that a reporter tweeting a well-reported story's headline with a link is beyond the pale and damages the paper they should get it over with and ban the newsroom from Twitter. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ ...

Moira Donegan / @moiradonegan: My thoughts are with @feliciasonmez, a journalist of uncommon integrity and ethical commitment to whom I and other women in media owe an enormous debt. https://docs.google.com/...
Megan Carpentier / @megancarpentier: It's pretty difficult to see their decision to suspend her for those Tweets as distinct from their knowledge of her history and how that is determined by them to affect her “objectivity” — even if the piece she tweeted didn't state her opinion of it.
Megha Rajagopalan / @meghara: Suspending a reporter over a controversial tweet instead of helping her deal with credible threats of physical violence that happened because of the tweet is what's wrong with the media industry https://docs.google.com/...
Ashton Applewhite / @thischairrocks: It's uncomfortable to raise the worst thing a beloved figure has ever done when that person dies. It should be uncomfortable. It is also brave and necessary. https://twitter.com/...

@zoeyorkwrites: As a @washingtonpost subscriber, this is deeply concerning to me. I'll be emailing them about this as well. Muzzling anyone for talking about sexual assault is inappropriate. https://twitter.com/...
Tim Shorrock / @timothys: Really glad to see the union aggressively defend @feliciasonmez. Incredibly heavy-handed actions by Post editorial management. https://twitter.com/...
Elise Hu / @elisewho: Now more than 300 @washingtonpost journalists have signed the Post union's petition in support of their colleague @feliciasonmez, who was suspended for ... tweeting a link to a story about Kobe Bryant's 2003 rape case #hifelicia https://docs.google.com/...
Jessica Valenti / @jessicavalenti: This should concern all female reporters. If women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted are not considered objective, you're going to have a *really* hard time finding any women to write about these issues https://twitter.com/...
Sarah Kaplan / @sarahkaplan48: Days like today are what unions are for. I'm proud to stand with my colleague Felicia and my fellow @PostGuild members: https://docs.google.com/...
Graham Starr / @grahamstarr: The Post Guild doesn't pull punches in its statement: “The Post's handling of this issue shows utter disregard for best practices” https://docs.google.com/...
Parker Higgins / @xor: The four pages of signatures on this letter suggests that journalists did not in fact think that Sonmez's tweets had made their work harder https://twitter.com/...
Bill Grueskin / @bgrueskin: Washpost employees' statement: “This is not the first time that The Post has sought to control how Felicia speaks on matters of sexual violence” https://docs.google.com/...

Marc Tracy / @marcatracy: Union representing Washington Post journalists out with statement. Lot of signatures https://twitter.com/...
Andrew Beaujon / @abeaujon: this appears to be a reference to when Sonmez wrote a letter to the Atlantic complaining about statements Caitlin Flanagan made about her (and tweeted the letter) https://twitter.com/...
Andrew Beaujon / @abeaujon: Some interesting texture in here: The union says management previously placed a letter in Sonmez's file after “articles attacking her were published in other outlets”

Kevin Collier / @kevincollier: @citizenlab @NYTBen @RonDeibert A clarification I haven't seen elsewhere, since today's report is the first reported instance of NSO being used against an American, which is against NSO's TOS.

Avi Asher-Schapiro / @aaschapiro: Did Saudi use spyware supplied by the Israeli surveilence firm NSO Group to try & hack into the NYTimes Beirut bureau chief's phone? It looks like the first documented NSO-hack of an American journalist. Read @NYTBen's account of what went down: https://www.nytimes.com/...
Jennifer Cohn / @jennycohn1: “The NSO Group has also run operations under different names like OSY Technologies, which paid former U.S. national security adviser Michal Flynn over $40,000 as an advisory board member for nearly a year, until last January [2016].” https://www.haaretz.com/... https://twitter.com/...

Ben Hubbard / @nytben: I got a weird SMS. I didn't click. Researchers concluded it was a hacking attempt with Israeli software by hackers linked to Saudi Arabia. Saudi officials: no comment. The Israeli company: not all hack attempts use our products. Be careful out there, kids. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Raphael Satter / @razhael: Deeply concerning. @NYTBen was targeted using NSO spyware, @citizenlab says. Kudos to Ben for knowing who to call — and to the Times for agreeing to make this case public.
