The other day, the New York Times introduced its super exciting new hire, Sarah Jeong! She’s joining NYT’s editorial board.
What would it be like if we all deleted Facebook? What does the future of online privacy look like?Why can’t the tech industry diversify? Are monkeys allowed to sue over copyrights? And what in the world is #cockygate?
To answer questions like these, the editorial board will soon be turning to Sarah Jeong, who will join us in September as our lead writer on technology. Sarah will also collaborate with Susan Fowler Rigetti, our incoming tech op-ed editor, and Kara Swisher, our latest contributor on tech issues.
By the way. She hates white people.
Dumbass fucking white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants

Meet the newest member of the New York Times editorial board.
I’d say that these tweets were part of her resumè when she applied for the job. pic.twitter.com/CLgFvPeAgM

NYT was MORE than willing to let that slide. She’s not REALLY a racist. She was just trolling her haters.

She also parroted the same excuse.
Hi all, I have a statement about the tweets that have been going around:

Go ahead and ask us Chicks how many times we’ve tweeted or whined about how much we hate *insert race here* in order to “counter” our haters.
The answer is ZERO, because that’s ridiculous and RACIST.
If that doesn’t do it for NYT, will this?
As it turns out, Jeong hasn’t always been a big fan of NYT.
After a bad day, some people come home and kick the furniture. I get on the internet and make fun of the New York Times.

I feel really bad for the 95% of the New York Times that already seethes with resentment over their horrible columnists

The way the columnists are managed is an eternal source of bewilderment for me

Even the unobjectionable ones are in obvious need of editing

NYT Opinion = Thought Catalog for Baby Boomers

Yep…that’s awk.
Update: PS– she thinks cops are a-holes.
It’s probably just more “satire,” amiritie?
