very annoyed that nobody has written this already: The Felicia Sonmez Twitter pile-on was not the work of greiving Kobe fans or offended @washingtonpost readers. It was right-wing trolls who hate The Washington Post on principle, notably Donald Trump, Jr. cjr.org/cjr_outbox pic.twitter.com/jfh9lmG0dj

Also that Comfortably Smug dude, although his RT, which drove a lot of the initial replies to her tweet, vanished when she deleted. That's probably how Don Jr saw it in the first place.

the extent to which senior edit staff at major newspapers are completely insulated from attacks on their own credibility is really bizarre and disturbing!

Major drivers of Twitter harassment are:
1. Big account RT/QT, especially right-wingers like Cernovich
2. Twitchy
3. Reddit
4. Fox News
5. Daily Caller
6. Human Events (because of Ian Cheong)

all the comments in the threads about this story were about sending journalists to Guantanamo so story checks out

The right-wing in this country is using the russian play book to further divide the other side. We've seen countless examples in the past few years.

It’s unconscionable that the Wapo editorial bosses that yanked Sonmez offline don’t already know how this shit works. At this point it’s professional malpractice.
