So I see Ms. Angyal that you have 10 years experience writing about gender politics and a PhD in Romantic Comedies. Explain to me exactly what you are qualified to do.

Duh...I can report about how misogynistic the world is and how romantic comedies totally do not represent "real" women or the LGBLT community.

Politicians, never mind PR hacks like Rhodes, once respected and feared journalists. Then they became the unpaid ideological errand boys and girls for Rhodes and his bosses. When lefty politicos and activists whistled, the New York Times, the Washington Post and the rest of the media asked, “How high?”

Is leaning coding via classes actually worth anything?

Can't be worth less than a PhD in romantic comedies. Coders still have jobs.

Yea... that's great, but I really just need you to make the coffee, then read the name on the cup.

In case you weren't aware that reporter lost her last summer with the New Yorker for incorrectly tweeting that ICE agent in a picture had a Nazi tattoo. It was his US military platoon tattoo from Afghanistan. She told Vanity Fair she had $400 when she lost her job.

But absolutely laudable if you tell it to a laid off miner or construction worker

Or if you threaten violence against a 16 year old. I recently quit Twitter. It's just become too much of an echo chamber for these liberal cult loons.

As someone with a PhD in a physical science....you are wrong. A doctor is someone with a PhD. An M.D. is a physician.


These crappy schools are pumping out so many PhDs in B.S. disciplines that is is hurting the value of my hard science PhD.

I've read through most of this thread, and all I've got to say is goodness these folks are some loonies. They get paid to write glorified facebook or blog posts. Most of them do not deserve to even be called journalist.

The worst part is that they are all the same. Do they not hire people with different opinions at all. WTF is that. Could that not be considered some form of discrimination?

Most journalists today are not worth the paper that their stories are no longer printed on. Could not care less.

Incorrect. A "doctor" is anyone with a doctorate degree:

Ph.D
M.D.
J.D.

The funny thing about it, is rather or not they'd admit it( they probably wouldn't), they don't like black guys very much either. From the list of "diverse" fired journalists I saw, I did not see not black man. That's because black men and white men are very similar in many different avenues. Sure, we will disagree in different avenues such as music or whether Trump is a good person or not. But we are similar.

But black men dont fool with the LGBT movement, the feminist movement, most black men are pro-guns, etc. Many black men do hold some form of Christian values. Your average black man would not fit into their circle at all. They hate us without even knowing it.

If you're in the market for an opinion editor with a huge and diverse rolodex, or a columnist with 10 years of writing about gender politics (and a literal PhD in romantic comedies) under her belt, talk to me.



That doesn’t really sound like a “journalist”

The Jd, PharD etc. are just scams to extract more money out of ignorant students

This is very true. Men are men, first and foremost.
