>>123264596OK. Journalist here. It's not segregation. That's a red herring. It's simply anti-press authoritarianism, and she's getting away with it because, I hate to say it, she has a point.
You Yanks are too sensitive, but a black American being sensitive about her hair, regardless of logical that is, is entirely understandable if she's had abuse and white Americans being weird about it. Even before you get to that, it's just retarded having people who call themselves 'journalists' talking utter nonsensical shite about your hair after coming all that way to supposedly do their jobs.
So I can't blame her. I empathize.
But it's also stupid because you as an editor have to find journos who are 1. suited to that kind of assignment 2. in the area or available to fly out and 3. now have to have darker skin too. It's very narrow, and regardless of anything:
a. makes it bloody difficult regardless of intent for the press to do their jobs and censors them in the process
b. implies if it was the token black journo from the Daily Heil or the Express or some rag, she'd talk to them, even though they are probably a retard who will ask her stupid shit
So it's censorship, not segregation.
And ultimately it's down to retards at Fox News and so on doing hit pieces that are at best stupid and distracting, needlessly insulting, and at worst, rather racist.
She should've said right, any organisation who had a journo ask me about my hair or make fun, they're banned from my meetings. Any other journo who does it, they're banned too.
But if she has to be more commonsense about deciding if something is racist and how to deal with it, then so do you. This is censorship, not segregation.
My two cents.
