Memo: Washington Post Executive Editor Sally Buzbee reiterates “in the strongest of terms” rules banning harassment, discrimination, and attacks on colleagues — DEMOCRACY DIES ON TWITTER — The Washington Post's executive editor Sally Buzbee on Tuesday issued yet another internal memo …
Discussion:
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: In early 2020, @stevenjay and @loriamontgomery, then the Post's National and deputy National editors, commissioned an internal report on social media use in response to newsroom-wide outrage over my suspension. Two years later, nothing has changed. 1/x https://int.nyt.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: New: @SallyBuzbee sends stern memo to WaPo staff, reiterating newsroom's values against “racist or sexist behavior” and saying that “we do not tolerate colleagues attacking colleagues either face to face or online.” https://twitter.com/...
Jackson Richman / Mediaite: Washington Post Editor Gets Tough in New Memo to Staff Over Online Behavior: ‘We Will Enforce Our Policies And Standards’
Chris Selley / @cselley: If I started a newspaper I would make it a condition of employment that employees can't be on Twitter. https://twitter.com/...
Ashley Parker / @ashleyrparker: The Post is not perfect. No institution is. But I'm proud to work here. I love coming to work (almost) every single day, and knowing that my colleagues are collegial, collaborative and fun humans — not to mention talented journalists — who are always striving to do better. https://twitter.com/...
Dan Balz / @danbalz: Collegiality and collaboration long have been hallmarks of The Post's culture. It is filled with good and talented people who take their work seriously and who also enjoy each other's company. We make mistakes and try to learn from them. I've felt proud and lucky to be here. https://twitter.com/...
Carol Leonnig / @carolleonnig: I have been deeply troubled watching my coworkers being attacked in public lately. None of us are perfect. Thanks to @SallyBuzbee for reemphasizing she won't tolerate coworkers attacking their own. The hallmark of @washingtonpost has been its collegiality. I'm proud to work here. https://twitter.com/...
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Pinning this thread because it's important. (And have deleted one of the tweets because I told a story that is my colleague's, and not mine, to tell.) https://twitter.com/...
Corbin Bolies / @corbinbolies: The @washingtonpost has issued *another* memo condemning attacks between colleagues, promising to enforce its social media and workplace harassment policies. It came hours after @feliciasonmez called out management for ignoring enforcement for years: https://www.thedailybeast.com/ ...
Kevin Sieff / @ksieff: Our newsroom is full of some of the smartest, most collegial people I've ever met. And their journalism is almost always better than their tweets. I'm proud to work at the Post. https://twitter.com/...
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: Several WaPo reporters tweeting after @SallyBuzbee's memo that, while the institution isn't perfect, they are proud to work for the paper. Here are a few. https://twitter.com/...
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: And honestly, we've known it for far longer than that. For years, Post employees have been raising concerns of unequal treatment of employees from different backgrounds, or of “stars” versus everyone else — not just when it comes to social media use. None of this is new. 11/x
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Are there “different rules for different people here?” Yes. We've known it for more than two years. We held three company-wide “listening sessions” on the issue in Feb. 2020, shortly before Post staffers began working from home due to the coronavirus pandemic. 10/x
Peter Doran / @peterbdoran: The best thing that @feliciasonmez can do right now is tell @SallyBuzbee that sentence two needs a verb. https://twitter.com/...
Nick Miroff / @nickmiroff: The collaborative newsroom culture built by the Graham family has survived plenty of tests and trials, and it'll survive Twitter. Thank you @SallyBuzbee for making clear we're all in this together. I'm deeply proud to be a part of The Washington Post. https://twitter.com/...
@froomkin: The full report on social media guidelines from the Washington Post's national desk is really quite amazing and (still) on point. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Saagar Enjeti / @esaagar: I have real sympathy for some great people at the Post who are trapped inside the building with crazy people but I regret to inform them that this statement is moot. The instigator and the liar weren't punished while the guy who RTd a joke was. This is all just window dressing https://twitter.com/...
Glenn Greenwald / @ggreenwald: This is just weird and creepy. Why are they all posting identical language about how proud they are to work at the Washington Post, like from a script handed down by a cult leader? https://twitter.com/...
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: I often hear from colleagues who want to say something but are afraid to speak out. Knowing how the Post punished me for my own trauma — and how a colleague publicly accused me of “bullying” for flagging a sexist tweet — I don't blame them for being afraid of retaliation. 16/x

Jill Filipovic / @jillfilipovic: Here's a take everyone will hate! A few things can be true: -Weigel's tweet was dumb and sexist. -Felicia Sonmez was right to point out the rank hypocrisy of her and Dave's employer. -The consequences for dumb, sexist tweets should be proportionate and a month without pay is not. https://twitter.com/...
@angrybklynmom: I thought his retweet of the joke showed a lack of professionalism & I can understand why colleagues were bothered. But when a person is being suspended, & possibly fired for RT a joke, maybe it's gone too far? What happened to the old days of talking to someone privately? https://twitter.com/...

Fredrick Kunkle WaPo / @kunklefredrick: I'm sorry, but @daveweigel's punishment does not fit the crime. A month's suspension w/o pay for retweeting a sexist joke — especially after its removal and an apology was made — is the kind of overkill that chills free speech. https://www.cnn.com/...

If you critique him, you get screamed at. If you defend him, you will get screamed at. If you take a middle position you will get screamed at
Kat Rosenfield / @katrosenfield: very interested in the practical limits of whatever policy resulted in this if one were a WaPo employee who, say, pursues stand-up comedy as a hobby, or is overheard by some sniffy coworker telling a bawdy story to friends at a bar. what constitutes a suspense-worthy offense? https://twitter.com/...

@popehat: I'm a fan of @daveweigel, and have been for a while, and will remain one. I think it's good that he decided to apologize for retweeting a sexist joke that offended colleagues, but also think that a month suspension without pay is a substantially excessive punishment.
@profjeffjarviss: The Washington Post should send a strong message: tomorrow morning, fire at least 50% of the newsroom, ranked in order of Worst Retweets. This will create such a powerful culture reset.
Jesse Singal / @jessesingal: I'm sure this not-at-all-overreaction to a single retweet of a joke you could see any night on Comedy Central will calm things down and make the world more just. Congrats to all involved! Biggest congrats to me for never again having to work for an employer like this. https://twitter.com/...
Olivia Nuzzi / @olivianuzzi: I'm sad that all of us who subscribe to the Washington Post for their journalism won't get to read @daveweigel's coverage of the primaries taking place this month because the paper has put optics and politics before ethics and fairness. It's a disservice to readers.
Janet Johnson / @jjohnsonlaw: It's incredible. This is what Trumpism has reaped: misogyny is funny, women who object to it are fair game for harassment, even mild consequences for men who promote the misogyny that leads to a hostile work environment for a coworker are “not in anyone's best interest.” https://twitter.com/...
Victoria Brownworth / @vabvox: The shock here after years of Dave Weigel tweeting sexist crap is that WaPo finally thought something he said was over the top. https://twitter.com/...
Tim Miller / @timodc: Putting the debate over the original tweet aside, shouldn't we be incentivizing a forgiveness culture where people delete tweets & apologize, as @daveweigel did? Doesn't piling a gratuitous punishment on top just incentivize the next person to double down & go to substack? https://twitter.com/...

WaPo needs to have policies in place that discourage their reporters' from “casually” platforming bigotry — as there is no such thing as casual bigotry. https://twitter.com/...
@golikehellmachi: reporters, journalists and columnists all have *wildly* different expectations about what they should and should not tweet under their own names with their employers namechecked in their bios than almost any other professional field
@golikehellmachi: also weigel's a multiple repeat offender who'd been asking for trouble for a long time and got it, and i don't think a suspension is an unfair punishment given his track record
@golikehellmachi: when you have a professional culture that encourages people to get chippy with their peers, colleagues, followers and adversaries on social media every day, getting chippy is what people are going to do
IncognegroNeville / @formerlycbm: Not a fan of Weigel, but this is a ridiculous suspension. WaPo is a joke of a news organization. https://twitter.com/...
Matthew Yglesias / @mattyglesias: One month suspension without pay for Weigel. I'll just say I don't think the Post's handling of this retweet and related issues has built a healthier workplace environment that sets everyone up to succeed. https://www.cnn.com/...
@kt_so_it_goes: dumb retweet and wapo gets to do what they like with their workplace culture, including making it the wild wild west because they're just making up policies on the fly about what's ok and what'a not. when you don't have a policy this is the shit you're asking for https://twitter.com/...

@rudepundit: This is dumb. It was dumb when the Post did it before to @feliciasonmez. It's dumb now when it's @daveweigel. Weigel apologized and deleted the RT. Living in fear that a goddamn retweet will get you suspended or fired is a shitty thing to do to your employees. https://twitter.com/...

Jesse Singal / @jessesingal: We're many days out from Dave Weigel retweeting an offensive joke and quickly undoing it when he saw people were offended, and debate still rages in the WaPo newsroom. Everyone is resurfacing offenses they endured months/years ago to insert themselves into the shitstorm. Healthy! https://twitter.com/...
Tom Watson / @tomwatson: Pretty hard to both sides this situation. But damn, @SallyBuzbee succeeded. And thus blew it up bigger. Circle the wagons - “keep disputes secret from our know nothing readers” - is also a close cousin of let's get more conservative voices in the paper. https://twitter.com/...
Greta Van Susteren / @greta: Not everything we tweet or retweet should bring the ‘death penalty’ and frankly, I think 99% of women have heard worse (and many have said worse about men...)...he apologized so everyone should just let this go https://twitter.com/...
Ryan Mac / @rmac18: My main takeaway from this is that the font she emails with is enormous https://twitter.com/...
@blackamazon: Nothing was published when they were found to be so racist they called parts of the building the plantation , when they did not follow through on diversity pledges, when one of their reporters fudged contact details , and multiple instances of racism and sexism https://twitter.com/...
Jose A. Del Real / @jdelreal: I reject your attempt to make a specific critique of your regular public bullying into a sweeping opera about principles. As I said, Weigel's retweet was offensive and *should* be called out. It was strongly condemned internally. So I'm confused about your implication otherwise. https://twitter.com/...
Erin Overbey / @erinoverbey: I'd really like men in media to think hard about what it takes for women to continue to speak up/call out industry sexism & lack of diversity while receiving private texts/DMs from their male colleagues about how brave they are even as the men avoid joining the fight publicly... https://twitter.com/...
@juwanthewriter: Weigel's “joke” is activating the likes of alleged sexual harasser/far-right pundit Greg Kelly to make further harmful remarks to his colleagues in his defense. Meanwhile, he's tweeting like all is normal. https://twitter.com/...
Jay Caruso / @jaycaruso: Seriously? The Washington Post had to issue a statement about a retweet of a dumb joke? Nearly a dozen journalists in Mexico have been murdered since the start of the year and here we have people freaking out because Dave Weigel retweeted something. Goddamned babies. https://twitter.com/...
Janelle O'Dea / @jayohday: Every woman knows how this goes: “Sexism should be called out! None of that is allowed!!!” *calls out sexism* “No, no, not like that” https://twitter.com/...
@goldietaylor: I count @daveweigel as a friend. What he did was wrong. @feliciasonmez rightly called him out and Dave apologized. To accuse Felicia of being a clout chasing bully is abhorrent. https://twitter.com/...
Moira Donegan / @moiradonegan: @feliciasonmez In seriousness, having a principle means standing up for it even when it is unpopular, and even when it is inconvenient, and even when it means challenging our friends. I'm grateful to have Felicia as a model—she has shown bone-deep integrity on this point.
Moira Donegan / @moiradonegan: @feliciasonmez Strange that he seems to feel it's ridiculous that you would frame your own opposition to public sexism by representatives of your institution as “about principles.” Perhaps more accurate to say that opposition to sexism is simply not a principle that he respects.
Timnit Gebru / @timnitgebru: So this is what the @washingtonpost workplace is like? Men harassing women and calling them bullies and accusing them of creating a toxic work place for *checks notes* objecting to sexist tweets? Is he gonna have his name on an article about harassment then? https://twitter.com/...
Tara Haelle / @tarahaelle: Not a great way to lead a newsroom. If your employee retweets something sexist, and another employee calls them out publicly, *as they should*, you stand by them and discipline the offender. You don't call for being fucking polite. https://twitter.com/...
@jefflowell: Unbelievable, gross mis-characterization of what happened. I can't believe the grace @feliciasonmez is showing in dealing with this crap. https://twitter.com/...
Jesse Singal / @jessesingal: Noteworthy brushback pitch. It's weird to me how controversial it is among some journalists that it is better to handle your differences with your colleagues internally than it is to blast them on Twitter. https://twitter.com/...

Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: I've reached out to @SallyBuzbee and @mateagold for help on this but haven't heard back so far. Retaliation against a colleague for speaking out against sexism is never okay. I hope Washington Post leaders treat this as the serious issue that it is. 8/8
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Update: For those who, like me, are blocked from reading my colleague's tweets, here is his thread from this afternoon. No apology, but a whole boatload of more false accusations and mischaracterizations. To be clear: - There was no “unrelenting series of attacks.” 1/x https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Lauren Hough / @laurenthehough: the person who points out the problem isn't the problem. you don't solve the problem by silencing the person who pointed to it. why are we still fucking playing this game https://twitter.com/...
Jose A. Del Real / @jdelreal: Last night I came under an unrelenting series of attacks intended to tarnish my professional and personal reputation. The cause? Some tweets I sent calling for compassion within our workplace. Those attacks continued this morning. 1/6
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: So far I've received no apology from my colleague for baselessly accusing me of engaging in “bullying,” “harassment” and “cruelty” — just for objecting to a sexist tweet. I did, however, receive an email from him accusing me of fostering a “toxic workplace.” And now this! https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Jose A. Del Real / @jdelreal: @feliciasonmez Fighting sexism and misogyny matters deeply to me. I will always admire your bravery in sharing your story. And I support your fight against retribution for doing so. Entirely separately, I hope you reconsider the cruelty you regularly unleash against colleagues.
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Example 5 billion and then some. Especially great when a statement from your newspaper's executive editor provides fodder for *more* harassment. https://twitter.com/...
@froomkin: WaPo's top editor tells everyone to shut up already, instead of making a statement about sexism and sanctimonious men. Shame. https://www.thedailybeast.com/ ...
@froomkin: It's been a year since @SallyBuzbee took over the Washington Post newsroom. What kind of leader has she turned out to be? https://twitter.com/...
Ariel Zilber / New York Post: Washington Post editor scolds reporters after ‘sexist’ tweet ignites Twitter brawl
Mollie / @mzhemingway: I'm not saying you have to find the original joke laugh-out-loud funny but wow would it be awful to work at such a humorless and angry place. https://twitter.com/...
David Weigel / @daveweigel: I just removed a retweet of an offensive joke. I apologize and did not mean to cause any harm.
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: WaPo chief spox @kriscoratti issues statement on @daveweigel's retweet of a sexist joke, which he has since apologized for: “Editors have made clear to the staff that the tweet was reprehensible and demeaning language or actions like that will not be tolerated.”
Soledad O'Brien / @soledadobrien: It is TOTALLY NORMAL that a @washingtonpost political reporter retweets this misogynistic crap. Totally totally normal. https://twitter.com/...
Felicia Sonmez / @feliciasonmez: Fantastic to work at a news outlet where retweets like this are allowed! https://twitter.com/...
Glenn Greenwald / @ggreenwald: How many times does the same NYT/WPost reporter have to be caught lying before her frightened colleagues cease defending her or remain silent? Again, media employees love lamenting that they lost the trust of the public, but *never* look in the mirror to ask why this happened. https://twitter.com/...

Unlike ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC, Fox News will not carry Thursday's primetime January 6 Committee hearing, airing the proceedings on Fox Business instead — UPDATED, 4:57 PM: When the January 6th Committee holds its first primetime hearing on Thursday, Fox News Channel will stay …

Discussion:
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Fox News makes it official: It will NOT show Thursday's 1/6 hearing like all the other major networks. Tucker Carlson's show will air as usual. Carlson promotes conspiracy theories about the riot, calls the committee “illegitimate,” and ridicules the committee members.
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Fox's top news anchors will be moved over to the Fox Business Network, and they will cover the hearing there. At 8pm ET on an ordinary night, Fox News has more than 3 million viewers, while Fox Business has under 100,000. That pretty much says it all about Fox's priorities.
Adam Kinzinger / @adamkinzinger: If you work for @FoxNews and want to maintain your credibility as a journalist, now is a good time to speak out, or quit. Enough is enough. https://twitter.com/...
Keith Boykin / @keithboykin: ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC will all air Thursday's primetime hearing of the bipartisan January 6th Committee. So it looks like Fox News is the only major “news” network that won't air it. They gotta keep their viewers ignorant and angry. https://deadline.com/...
Matthewprigge / UPROXX: Try Not To Be Shocked: Fox News Will Not Be Airing The First Jan. 6 Committee Hearing, At Least Not On Its Main Channel
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: * Fox is trying to maintain legitimacy, as well, not as a news network, or as a business with occasional public sphere duties, but its legitimacy with core viewers. It has made the call that the committed audience won't stand for having the hearings “shoved down our throats.” 4/
Chris Stigall / @chrisstigall: Prediction: Fox will kick ratings ass. Check back Friday. Nobody will watch this. https://deadline.com/...
Philip Bump / @pbump: Given that Fox News has hardly covered the constituent elements of the Jan. 6 attack over the past 17 months it is not at all a surprise that they will not air the committee's hearings. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: * Another way to put it: By not carrying Thursday's hearing Fox is standing up for the rights of its viewers— more specifically, the right not to know. Not to see. * There is a kind of perverse public service standard there. Fox is protecting its public from the news. 5/
Jeremy Littau / @jeremylittau: One of the most powerful roles journalists play is that of gatekeeper (the selection of what to cover) and framer (characterizing the news). Many other neworks and cable channels are carrying it, so it's not like it means the public *can't* see it, but in a time of fracturing ... https://twitter.com/...
Ed Pilkington / The Guardian: US networks to air January 6 hearings - but Fox News sticks with Tucker Carlson
@accountablegop: Getting your Jan. 6 news from Fox News is like getting your Ukraine news from Russian state TV. https://twitter.com/...
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: * Among people who produce news for a living, agreement on the basic news worthiness of the hearings would probably reach 95 percent. (My guess.) * Among those people there should be no question that Fox is not a news network at its core, but something different. 2/
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: * As I said, Fox has the right to do this. A better question is whether it is strong enough to do anything else— to carry the hearings anyway. I say no. Fox is too weak to go against its core audience. The core audience is too weak to watch the hearings. Protection is needed. 7/
Sawyer Hackett / @sawyerhackett: Fox News ran 1,098 primetime segments on Benghazi from the day of the attack until the committee hearings, which they carried live for more than 7 hours. Today they announced they won't cover the hearings on the January 6th insurrection.
Julie Hinds / @juliehinds: This @Sulliview column is even more relevant now that Fox News has announced it won't be airing Thursday night's Jan. 6 committee hearing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Dominick Mastrangelo / The Hill: Fox News Channel won't carry coverage of prime-time Jan. 6 hearing live
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: * I assure you that CBS is not expecting Thursday's prime-time hearing to be a ratings winner. They are carrying it to maintain legitimacy as a private business that occasionally recognizes a duty to the public sphere. And not to do so would be a blow to their news division. 3/

Anna Merlan / VICE:
PR firm Vocal Media “recruits, trains, and pays influencers” to promote progressive causes, exemplifying just how lightly TikTok enforces disclosure rules — Vocal Media “recruits, trains, and pays influencers” to promote liberal causes on TikTok. It's easy to see how less-benign actors could use their model.

Discussion:
Tim Marchman / @timmarchman: A number of exhausting people have responded to this story by saying that it's okay to do undisclosed propaganda if it's in service of a sufficiently righteous cause. That's certainly an opinion one can have!
Rasmus Kleis Nielsen / @rasmus_kleis: Undisclosed “influence campaigns have been a persistent problem for TikTok”, and, as @annamerlan reports, as “Vocal Media “recruits, trains, and pays influencers” to promote liberal causes [it's] easy to see how less-benign actors could use their model” https://www.vice.com/...
Alex Howard / @digiphile: Covertly paying online “influencers” to hype causes is mind-bogglingly wrongheaded. https://www.vice.com/... This would run afoul of @FTC disclosure rules. A sabotaged @FEC means this Wild West will get worse. You can't buy authenticity. https://twitter.com/...
Becca Ricks / @baricks: Interesting story emerging today about paid political influence on TikTok, building off a @mozilla report that @bgeurkink and I wrote last year about policy loopholes on the platform (https://assets.mofoprod.net/ ...) https://twitter.com/...
Jason Koebler / @jason_koebler: what's up tiktok, today i want to talk to you about “bipartisan infrastructure bill” https://www.vice.com/...
@blackamazon: Wild funny that they found the “liberal” ones first after years or letting the racist ones slide https://twitter.com/...
@vice: The company has so far partnered with the likes of Planned Parenthood and NARAL. https://www.vice.com/...
Anna Merlan / @annamerlan: Last week, I got an email from an associate at a company called Hone Strategies, asking if I wanted to write about Vocal Media, which “recruits, trains and pays” influencers to make videos on “important policy topics” like gun violence and abortion. https://www.vice.com/...
Emily Baker-White / @ebakerwhite: Platforms can't always determine whether Campaign A paid Influencer B (off-platform) to make a given piece of content. But the fact that it's hard to enforce just makes it more dangerous. These are political ads, w/o disclosure about who paid for them. https://www.vice.com/...
Tim Marchman / @timmarchman: Oddly, we know this because the firm pitched @annamerlan on doing a story on the practice, which I suppose worked out in that she did. The ads, which the comms shop inexplicably insisted were not in violation of TikTok rules, were taken down after we reached out for comment.

Evan DeSimone / @mediaevan: Many sites that covered the early days of streaming video (StreamDaily, VideoInk) were folded into larger outlets long ago. Others, like Tubefilter, have thrived by widening their coverage to include influencers, social media, and the creator economy. Streaming is just TV now.
