Washington Post Suspends Journo for 1 Month After Retweeting Mean Joke

The Jews really need to just publish a complete list of the jokes you are allowed to make.

At this point, no one has any understanding of the current rules of the Joke Police, but it’s become painfully obvious that a list of jokes that are still allowed would be a fraction of the length of the jokes that are no longer allowed.

Breitbart:

The Washington Post suspended reporter Dave Weigel for one month without pay over a “reprehensible” retweet, according to reports.

Weigel’s work email reportedly auto-responds to incoming emails with the following message: “I am out of the office and will return on July 5.”

Weigel’s suspension comes just a few days after fellow Washington Post reporter Felicia Sonmez reprimanded him on Twitter over a tweet he retweeted.

On Friday, Weigel shared a tweet sent out by YouTube host Cam Harless that joked, “Every girl is bi. You just have to figure out if it’s polar or sexual.” Sonmez posted a screenshot of Weigel’s retweet with the caption, “Fantastic to work at a news outlet where retweets like this are allowed!”

Sonmez reportedly questioned Weigel about the tweet in a company Slack channel, asking him, “I’m sorry but what is this?” She added that his retweet sent “a confusing message about what the Post’s values are.”

Although Weigel publicly apologized, his efforts were not enough to please his bosses. “I just removed a retweet of an offensive joke. I apologize and did not mean to cause any harm,” Weigel said.

Washington Post chief spokesman Kris Coratti told the press, “editors have made clear to the staff that the tweet was reprehensible and demeaning language or actions like that will not be tolerated.”

Weigel’s tweet also caused a rift between Washington Post reporters. One reporter, Jose A. Del Real, critiqued Sonmez for publicly shaming their college.

However, Sonmez doubled down on her decision to call Weigel out online, telling Del Real, “Jose, Dave’s retweet was indeed terrible and unacceptable. It was also public, and it’s important that all those who saw Dave’s tweet also see Washington Post reporters standing up for our newspaper’s values — one of which is that comments denigrating women will not be tolerated.”

The spat between Sonmez and Del Real resulted in Del Real temporarily deactivating his Twitter account and blocking Sonmez from viewing his tweets.

Maybe he should have been permanently fired for posting a joke that is twenty years old and wasn’t really that funny the first time someone told it.

But literally “you can’t make a joke about women at all ever” eliminates such a huge category of humor that it’s difficult to know what you are allowed to say at all.

We already are very well aware that no jokes are allowed about blacks or any other racial “minority” or homosexuals.

So what can you joke about? Just poop?

How is joking about poop not homophobic?

After all: homosexuals eat poop. 

Doxxing is fine though
