The multi-billion dollar industry means we’ll always be treated as children.

This is assault. Why are we okay with no charges?

The only real solution is to disallow for users to leave negative reviews. If you allow a way to “downvote” it will quickly be abused, every time. Eliminate “Positive” and “Negative” and keep the “Helpful” right there. Easy.

It is the "clock-in/clock-out" that is more destructive than the 10% of bad cops.

What is Facebook is abandoned? Or is that a constant assumption of engagement. This all feels like a feel-good loophole that is only good in this one case.

It makes me vomit.

Like the goddamn frat did?

The day when the Frat speaks better words than the advocates is a scary one.

This is no different from most corporate policies. Prove once you can pass, and then you’re golden. Why? Because the other options in favor of catching people are such insane infringements on personal liberty they would never fly.

And they’ll fail, because it will be a choice between giving up the life and... essentially giving up the life while still working for the company. Lose-lose.

Well... they ARE covered under “Fair Use” but law is so skewed they don’t need to prove a thing to issue a takedown.

I laughed when you had an opinion :p

My partner isn't at all a sports fan, so no strikes there.

I agree that journalism isn’t her calling, but that doesn’t mean this sort of dedication is inherently bad. She is a principled individual who sticks by her beliefs. There are plenty of opportunities to do such without being in a field that demands neutrality.

Ehrm, don't follow me ITheeDread. I'm blocked by Gawker for good reason :p

I'm so not the "theme wedding" type, but GO RED SOX!

The media collage was considered “High Art” in the time of Eliot and Pound. If anything, those old white men were far ahead of their time.

As I said elsewhere, I really hope that Erdley can reflect, learn and then get back into being the best she can be. Not an easy means to scale that wall.

You know what? I hope she can learn, grow and get back out there with a better head on her shoulders.

I will never, ever really celebrate another human being being denied the chance for a living wage. So regardless, I really hope she lands on her feet in a career that is less open to personal bias manipulation.
