Her social media team is awesome. And quick.

But it could apparently also sever an artery, so I’ll pass.

lolololol mte. people who act like the fashion industry should be prestigious kill me. OH NO!!! the most racist industry on earth isnt being fair!!!

Oh for fucks sake who gives a shit? Excuse me if I can’t be bothered with how the supermodels of the 90s weep for what (may or may not have) happened to their “craft.”

Trump will next criticize Clinton’s ill-fitting suits, her inexplicably orange skin, her tendency to loom over people, and her terrible comb-over. “I hear she just reaches out and grabs people by the pussy, is what I hear” reports Trump.

Ooh, you gotta look at Tracy’s tongue lashing on Twitter.

The claim of Jezebel “never [being] a feminist blog” was made famous by Jessica Coen in her doubling-down replies to the outrage against the decision to publish pictues of an anonymous and unknown woman’s rape.

After Jezebel was attacked for doing anti-feminist things (posting pics of a rape victim, employing Hugo Schwyzer) and didn’t like the standards it was being held to.

I agree— I can’t help thinking that the folks who work here (bless their hearts) have a wildly distorted view of (a) this blog’s appeal to the masses outside of the commentariat, and (b) this blog’s importance. It’s a gossip rag that veers into meaty territory from time-to-time. I adore it, but I don’t consider it a…

totally agree. Anna is one of my favorite writers over here but Hillary Clinton does not owe Jezebel anything. This is a weird, entitled take on what should be a pretty cut-and-dry situation. Jez doesn’t like Hillary and hasn’t supported her (even when they do, they are begrudging) and she doesn’t want to be…

...Jezebel, to the long-standing dismay of some readers, hasn’t explicitly self-identified as a feminist website ..

Right after Jezebel published the un-retouched images of Lena Dunhams magazine cover.

AMEN. Soooo many times have Jezebel writers have been called out on anti-feminist shit, and this has been the most consistent response. Its absurd. Jezebel are way overvaluing their influence and credibility in feminist discourse and media. I mean, they could change gears at any time, but then they’d have to…

You’ve every right to bring this up. Historically, Jezebel — the website, I should stress — has taken a feminist-when-convenient stance. It’s been most noticeable whenever they’ve gotten themselves into hot water over the years: in those circumstances, they’ve been mighty quick to correct commenters who label it a…

Yeah, I like Anna, but I’m still trying to figure out if this article is low-grade trolling or if Jezebel’s writers are just that out of touch with how Gawker Media/Jezebel is perceived in the wider world. Personally I’m shocked Clinton’s camp even pretended to entertain an interview proposition.

What? Did you actually listen to the Another Round episode with Hillary? They joked with her, sure, but they pressed her on policy as well. Positioning yourselves as the only women’s media to bother asking real questions is probably not the best look.

Perhaps that people actually read the comments on GM sites so it has more impact? I have colleagues who have refused offers to work with Jezebel because of a combination of the comments and the site’s reputation.

But still: Secretary Clinton and Jezebel felt like a match made in media expediency heaven.

I feel like the active and notoriously unforgiving commentariat is definitely a factor in not giving an interview to Jezebel. I know I would advise a client to not interview with Jezebel unless they were prepared for a full autopsy in the gallery of the comments. Sometimes this picking apart is entirely fair.…

Her letter to The Toast slightly lessened the pain of it closing. Talk about micro-targeting! It was pretty awesome that she would send something to such a small, relatively obscure website, and it made my day to see it.
