How journalists, writers, and editors respond to notifications of typos (even snarky ones) tells you a lot about them. 🧵

This is the correction that garnered the above response. ↓

❌ Don't respond by feeding the trolls or sexually harassing readers. ↓
✔︎ Do take ownership of your mistakes.

The correct response is to thank the reader for taking the time to notify you of the error and fix it or notify the person who can.

If you think you're being trolled, just ignore them and fix it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have a friend who is a professionally trained mediator who recently shared this brief Twitter lecture on mediation with me when we were looking at some tweets together. 🧵
I’ve since shared it privately with friends who found it helpful in other situations so I got permission to share publicly so it can have a wider audience.

He’s opting to remain anonymous. ↓
Obviously no one on social media is engaging in professional mediation here but you will often find people claiming to be neutral parties who are very much not what they say are. ↓

1. One-sided reporting is definitely a major part of the manufactured "Karen" problem but even with better reporting many people bring their particular lens to any video clip.
2. In 6 years of writing about race-related controversy I've come to believe that racism is in the eye of the beholder. It's very rarely something you can prove with objective facts. These videos are Rorschach tests.
3. You will absolutely not convince some people that the women in Cathy's piece are either unrepentant racists or totally innocent "victims" no matter how good the reporting is.

1. Gunther Hashida was the 3rd officer who responded to the January 6th insurrection who has died by suicide. If you’re in a position to help his family, Gunther is survived by his wife and 3 children. He was 43 years old.
2. Hashida is a Japanese family name.

Not seeing any media reports that mention this so far. Will check again later.

1. I didn't know Cathy was going to write this when I responded to her other thread but deeply appreciate it. 🙏

There's no good way to combat misinformation about yourself but I haven't wanted anyone else to get dragged into this mess so I've stayed silent on this for months.
2. Some of it was happening when I was dealing with medical crises and added to my stress level because I had to spend time documenting everything in case it escalated and I needed it later.

3. I knew that talking about it publicly would likely make the situation worse but having talked with other people who have experienced much worse than I have, I'm done staying silent on this.

"SB needs to stop smearing people as stalkers."

As one of several people whom she’s falsely made this claim about, and made other false statements about, thank you for saying this, Cathy.

🧵
As a lawyer, she should be aware of what the laws on stalking are and that she can make these false allegations against people and face no professional consequences is incredible. ↓
I was also one of the first people to raise questions about the disproportionate treatment she was receiving for what at the time seemed like a misunderstanding by writing about this ludicrous and inhumane petition. ↓
