Taylor Lorenz:

- Attacks a female CEO out of the blue
- Made a factual error ( @stephkorey is still Away CEO!)
- Violated NYT social media guidelines
- Then omits her own attack & plays victim ( http://archive.is/rU1Oa )

This">https://archive.is/rU1Oa&quo... is how it works. These "journalists" are sociopaths.
All "journalists" need to understand this:

Treat people with respect, and they will be respectful.
But insult someone and prepare to be insulted back!

And no, employees of media corporations aren& #39;t exempt from standards of civility. We& #39;re all equal, all citizen journalists now.
Btw, here& #39;s the editor of TheInformation gently trying to explain to Lorenz that her initial drive-by assault on @stephkorey (who has less than 8k followers and was just talking to her friends!) didn& #39;t actually include any arguments. https://twitter.com/Jessicalessin/status/1278326121524756481">https://twitter.com/Jessicale...
Here& #39;s their MO:

- "journalist" attacks someone
- you defend them
- "journalist" omits their original attack
- ...and pretends they& #39;re the victim!
- then tries to go after your job or company

This doesn& #39;t affect me at all. But this is what they do to you.
Remember, journalists always go after your job.

So it& #39;s completely fair to ask @CorbettNYT & @deanbaquet why Lorenz flagrantly violated NYT social media guidelines.

"Always treat others with respect on social media."

Did she treat Korey with respect?

To summarize:

- Every citizen is now equal to a journalist
- Every company is now a media company
- There are no double standards anymore
- And @TaylorLorenz should apologize to @stephkorey

If you treat people with respect, you& #39;ll be treated with respect. And conversely.
