The one thing she got right, it didn't matter who you put in that position, nobody was going to be able to turn Reddit into a billion dollar ad business.

I think Pao did exactly what her bosses wanted her to do, so in that sense she didn't "fail".

I haven't seen this much journalistic masturbation since Aaron Sorkin's The Newsroom.

I also learned that computer nerds hate Asians. Do you white ivory tower idiots have any clue how many Asians there are in in the Silicon Valley let alone the tech industry?? In the 90s if it wasn't for Asian women there would be no women in Silicon Valley because they actually take STEM classes. Of course you don't know because you are some liberal arts dip shit.

Let's all get one thing straight: CNN is basically TMZ for general audiences. It's fucking garbage. It's not journalism. You can tell by the way this guy sets up this whole piece. "Message boards"? Reddit has no message boards, so this fucking liar obviously never even went on the site. He must think it's something like 4chan. And this dumb fucking woman? What a moron. She sits there and explains how Pao had no idea what she was doing and then still manages to blame sexism? Seriously? Nah, fuck those dipshits and anyone who thinks like them. Fucking SJW's... no shame.

I'm guessing "Message Boards" was probably something like individual posts on various subs? He probably went to the Reddit website (for the first time), clicked on a few things, and then called it "research complete". Not exactly Pulitzer material, to be sure.

Just... what the actual fuck? Pretty sure neither of the people in the "report" have actually taken their time to do research before they put this shit together.
In the last two years I've managed to lose trust in pretty much all news sources. Nobody cares about honest, factual journalism anymore. Everybody's either pushing an agenda or is flat out trying to make as much money as possible by all means necessary.
