YET ANOTHER NORMAL DAY AT THE WASHINGTON POST: A Twitter thread collated by Jim Treacher.
As Treacher sums it all up:
Related: Washington Post Editor Gets Tough in New Memo to Staff Over Online Behavior: ‘We Will Enforce Our Policies And Standards’ — and issue Manchurian Candidate-style talking points as well, apparently. It’s all so collegial there!
UPDATE: Question asked by Ace of Spades: “Do I have this wrong? Is this in fact a protest against the Post? Forbidden against speaking out against Somnez and her scalp-hunting, have they turned to protesting by heaping sarcastic praise on the Post?”
John Sexton of Hot Air agrees: “After further reflection, I suspect this is intended to be a response to Felicia Sonmez. Think about it. She got Dave Weigel suspended. She tried to get another employee suspended. Now she’s attacking the Post at length as a problematic workplace. And suddenly we get a bunch of employees saying people make mistakes (a reference to Weigel) but despite that the Post is a great place to work. I think this is meant to be a non-confrontational way of publicly disagreeing with Sonmez. In fact that’s the conclusion that [Glenn] Greenwald came around to eventually. Again, it is a bit creepy but given that the executive editor just warned the entire staff not to call out employees by name online, they can’t go after her directly. Nevertheless, there are a bunch of people at the Post who aren’t on board with what Felicia Sonmez is saying.”
