Direct quotes from the article:

"Because many Americans are old."

Oh, for fuck's sake - really?

How many middle-older aged women do you see on the TV news? In movies? In the Oval Office of the WHITE HOUSE?

I'm old in comparison to the average age of a Jezebel poster.

Take a deep breath, and this time, read the story before commenting.
Direct quotes:

The oldshaming here at Jezebel never seems to get old.

We don't like fatshaming, slutshaming - but old shaming is not only acceptable, it occurs on a regular basis.

I resent this. I'm a granny, and I wouldn't dream of wearing any of these hideous garments.

A woman who couldn't finish her own job lecturing about leadership?

A couple of weeks ago, I suggested blending 2 failing franchises (the Bachelor and Dancing with the Stars) to form Dancing with the Bachelor. The Fantasy Suites would be part of the competition. Imagine the commentary on THAT from the grumpy old geezer judge - and the scores! ("Sorry, dude that was a 3. She was…

So the angry people were not "fans" of Sarah Jones, they were her colleagues. Could we try to use the correct, respectful terminology here?

No. I've never been to a book store. Tell me more about these mythical enterprises!

She'd never have made this plea to a male author. The world is always big enough for more male musicians and writers, but it shrinks right up for women. Anyone who makes a splash in the music world is always "the next ____" fill in the blank. The next Madonna, the next Sheryl Crow, the next Taylor Swift, the next,…

Ronald Reagan was a senile old man.
