TRISH: TWITTER IS APOLOGIZEING A
OF BACKLASH ERUPTED AFTER
BRIEFLY LOCKING CONSERVATIVE
SHE RETWEETED TWEETS FROM SARAH
JEONG, THE NEWLY HIRED, NEW
REPORTER AT "NEW YORK TIMES"
EDITORIAL BOARD.
MANY OF JEONG'S OLD TWEETS
SURFACED AND SHE IS LASHING OUT
AGAINST WHITE PEOPLE.
OWENS REPLACED WHITE PEOPLE WITH
DIFFERENT RACES AND RELIGIONS,
SHOWING HYPOCRISY.
TWITTER SAID, WE'RE SHUTTING YOU
DOWN.
JOINING ME TO DISCUSS THIS,
FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR, DEMOCRATIC
STRATEGIST, JEHMU GREEN.
WE WILL HAVE IN A MINUTE DEROY
WHAT IS YOUR REACTION?
>> LOOK, I THINK THAT IT IS GOOD
THING, TRISH, I THINK YOU AGREE,
HARRASSMENT AND PART OF THE
WILD, WILD WEST SO MANY YEARS
AGO.
NO ONE SHOULD BE DISCRIMINATED
AGAINST, WE HAVE SEEN, STUDIES
SHOW VERY CLEARLY WOMEN OF COLOR
WHO GET THE MOST AMOUNT OF
KATRINA PIERSON, TO LOVELY
AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN, INSTEAD
OF FOCUSING ON THE FACT THAT
TOMORROW IS EQUAL PAY DAY FOR
BLACK WOMAN, ARE FOCUSED ON THIS
ISSUE WHEN WE HAVE SUCH AN
INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO
HIGHLIGHT THE DISPARITY IN PAY
THAT BLACK WOMEN RECEIVE, THAT
THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO WORK UNTIL
AUGUST 7th TO GET THE SAME
EQUAL PAY AS THEIR WHITE, MALE
COUNTERPARTS.
TRISH: THAT IS ANOTHER
CONVERSATION.
>> THEY HAVE A PLATFORM.
THEY COULD BE FOCUSED ON THAT.
TRISH: WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
TWITTER, WHETHER THEY BASICALLY
ARE WILLING TO CLAMP DOWN ON ONE
GROUP OF PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY'RE
CONSERVATIVE AND NOT ANOTHER
GROUP OF PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY'RE
LIBERAL.
IT SEEMS, LIKE YOU KNOW, YOU WOE
WANT, DEROY MURDOCH IS HERE AS
WELL, SOME FAIRNESS ACROSS THE
BOARD.
>> OF COURSE.
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH SIDE IT
IS COMING FROM.
MORE CAREFUL AND CAUTIOUS WITH
>> IF THERE IS ANY DISPARITY
HERE, AMAZING, STAGGERING DOUBLE
STANDARD HOW THESE TWO WOMEN
HAVE BEEN TREATED.
CANDACE OWENS WAS KNOCKED OFF
TWITTER, ONLY BRIEFLY.
THANKLY SHE WAS PUT ON.
SARAH JEONG, NOT JUST TWO
COMMENTS, GOING BACK TO 2014,
FOR YEARS SAYING THINGS DRAW
DROPPINGLY RACIST.
WHITE PEOPLE EXECUTE DOG SMELL
WHEN IT RAINS.
WHITE PEOPLE STOP BREEDING.
YOU WILL GO EXTINCT SOON, THAT
WAS MY PLAN ALL ALONG.
ANYBODY THAT WOULD SAY THIS
THING WOULD A, REMAIN ON TWITTER
AND GET HIRED TO THE PAPER OF
TO SUBURBS BUT ON EDITORIAL
LOOK TO IMPORTANT VOICE ON IF
ANYBODY WHITE, SAID THAT ABOUT
BLACKS, JEWS OR HISPANICS WOULD
NOT BE A ALLOWED.
TRISH: WHY ARE THEY WILLING TO
KEEP THIS WOMAN, HIRE THIS
WOMAN, WHO CLEARLY HAS HER OWN
ISSUES FOR SURE, MADE THAT
ABUNDANTLY CLEAR TO THE WORLD?
WHY IS "THE NEW YORK TIMES"
ALLOWING THAT?
>> I READ THE STATEMENT.
THEY DIDN'T DEFEND THE
STATEMENTS.
TRISH: SHE STILL HAS A JOB.
>> SHE COMMUNICATED HER REGRETS
ABOUT IT.
WE HAVE TO POINT OUT HER
STATEMENTS ON TWITTER STARTED IN
REACTION TO THE HARRASSMENT SHE
WAS RECEIVING FROM WHITE
SUPREMACISTS AND A BUNCH OF
HATERS ON TWITTER.
>> IF BLACK LIVES MATTER GOES
THAT WOULD EVER COME OUT OF MY
MOUTH OR OUT OF MY HAND.
>> NOR SHOULD IT, NOR SHOULD IT.
TRISH: NOT IN A BILLION YEARS.
>> IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN
ALLOWED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
TRISH: YOU SOMEHOW ARE
JUSTIFYING IT NO.
NO JUSTIFICATION.
TRISH: YOU'RE SAYING JUSTIFIED
SHE DID THIS.
>> YOU'RE SAYING THERE IS NO
JUSTIFICATION.
>> TRISH, LISTEN TO ME.
THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION.
WE SHOULD ACCEPT THE FACT --
TRISH: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE
"NEW YORK TIMES," JEHMU.
>> SHE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN
ATTACK AND USED THEIR OWN
LANGUAGE TO ATTACK THEM BACK.
TRISH: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE
"NEW YORK TIMES"?
WHERE IS THE "NEW YORK TIMES"?
WHY AREN'T THEY CLAMMING DOWN ON
THIS?
>> THEY HAVE TOTALLY DIFFERENT
ATTITUDE.
IT IS OKAY TO BE RACIST AS LONG
AS YOU'RE ATTACKING WHITE
PEOPLE.
>> THAT IS WRONG.
>> THEY SENT THAT THE STAFF AND
ENTIRE MEDIA.
IF YOU'RE BEATINGS UP ON WHITE
PEOPLE THAT IS COOL.
LOOK I WAS TROLLED BY BOB SMITH,
BOB SMYTHE YOU'RE A WHITE -- SHE
ALL WHITE PEOPLE.
SHE SAID A WHITE FEMALE, WHITE
FEMALES, F-WHITE WOMEN, LOL.
F-WHITE WOMEN.
LOL.
NOT JUST ONE WHITE WOMAN, MALE
OR FEMALE.
ALL PEOPLE, SHOCKING.
"NEW YORK TIMES" THINKS THIS IS
COOL AND BEAUTIFUL THING.
KEEP HER ON STAFF TO SHARE HER
OPINIONS AND HATE.
REPREHENSIBLE BY THE SO-CALLED
PAPER OF RECORD.
SHOULD BE ASHAMED AT YOURSELVES.
HONESTY.
TRISH: WOULD YOU FIRE HER,
TRISH.
YOU.
YOU ARE CONDEMNING THIS.
SO WOULD YOU FIRE HER?
>> I WOULD CERTAINLY HOLD HER
ACCOUNTABLE.
I'M NOT IN PERSONNEL AT THE
"NEW YORK TIMES."
WHAT IS IMPORTANT TWITTER HAS
DIFFERENT STANDARDS.
THOSE WOULD BE ENFORCED.
>> THAT NOT WHAT I'M ASKING.
STUFF AND THEY DO GO AFTER
CONSERVATIVES.
THEY GO AFTER CONSERVATIVES.
THEY'RE LOOKING FOR IT.
>> SHOULD TO AFTER ALL HATE
SPEECH.
SHOULD GO AFTER ALL HARRASSMENT.
TRISH: IF YOU WERE AT
>> IF I WAS IN A POSITION TO
HOLD SOMEONE ACCOUNTABLE FOR
THEIR WORDS I WOULD TAKE ALL OF
THEIR REMORSE.
IT APPEARS SHE IS REGETFUL ABOUT
THE STATEMENTS.
APPEARS TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT.
BECAUSE OF THEIR HATEFUL SPEECH.
>> NEVER SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A
JOB OFFER.
TRISH: SHE DOESN'T DESERVE TO BE
FIRED.
LOOKING TORE CONSISTENCY, RIGHT.
THIS IS WHAT BUGS ME.
I JUST WANT SOME FAIRNESS.
>> WOULD BE GOOD TO HAVE
CONSISTENCY.
EITHER SHE GETS SACKED AND KEEPS
HER JOB AND ANYBODY CAN SAY
WHATEVER THEY WANT ABOUT
ANYBODY, USE AS MANY SLURS AS WE
WISH, PEOPLE CAN COME AND GO AS
THEY PLEASE.
SACKED AND TOTALLY UNFAIR.
>> THIS WOMAN OUGHT TO BE
SACKED.
WE KNOW WHAT SHE THINKS.
I DON'T THINK IT WAS ENTIRELY
SAID OR TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT.
YOU CAN USE THAT DEFENSE FOR A
LOT OF PEOPLE, INCLUDING
SOMEBODY LIKE ROSEANNE BARR.
