What is going to happen is he'll end up on a "performance plan" until they find some other plausible reason to can him. It's why he wiped his Twitter. |

Is this fight about winning people over or getting to go "told ya so" at people who've changed their minds? Matt didn't have to sign the letter and had to neuter his twitter after. For that he gets attacked by people he's agreeing with? |
|
Date: July 8th, 2020 9:49 AM Author: ,.,.,.,.,,.,..,:,,:,,.,:::,.,,.,:.,,.:.,:.,:.::,. he's saying he sounded the alarm to these publications and institution years ago but they were all silent until now which enabled lots of damage to be inflicted
also, he wasn't asked to sign the letter |
|
Date: July 8th, 2020 9:50 AM Author: War Machine (PROTON CANNON!) 99% of people were or are still silent, probably because risking your career to take a stand is a big ask for someone with a family.
Do you think Matt would sign the letter again if he had to do it over? |

i feel nothing for those "brave souls" who signed it knowing they were propping up a gaslighting project at the front of the letter which is as damaging, if not worse, than what they are fighting.

Date: July 8th, 2020 1:59 PM Author: bond There is a level of detachment writing master purchase agreements for large conglomerates where ultimately you don't have any personal feelings about the impact of what you're writing. And it's not like all your coworkers can read your work.
In a newsroom you're writing things with the potential to reach a large population - you're literally an instrument of propaganda. Your writing will be forced into fitting a narrow viewpoint, particularly from other minority writers. Tow the line and your career is in jeopardy. I doubt even a black Vox writer could have signed the letter without escaping harsh criticism. |
