Sure it is. You are representing your employer in public, so whatever you do that might embarrass them in public could be grounds. I am sure he has such a clause in his employment agreement.

I'm pretty sure DaFace is a male. (if that helps).

Yeah, when I clicked on the link for him being suspended for arguing with fans and sending an email to a cowriter to **** off that's what I first thought. That's a lot like what the new NFL broadcaster Goldberg got released for this year.

I think her exposing his DMs is a bit iffy. The last one wasn't that bad. Dudes a human, if he was doing it with all sorts of women or harassing her constantly.. that's one thing but it never hurts to take a shot :)
The middle DM is the one that's rough

When he says he's not going to argue with a woman, it sounds like he might be trying to be polite. It's not like he says he's not going to argue with an empty headed puck bunny.

He probably shouldn't have pulled the show-us-your-tatas move, however.

Is this the guy who was cussing people out a few weeks ago on twitter?

I don t argue with women. I won t argue with a woman. And there is nithing wrong with saying so. Good grief

I'm in the probably category. It's different when you deal with the public, and the public is most certainly the paper's customer.

It's not all that different from a retail guy creeping on some chick wearing his uniform standing outside the store. He creeps on too many customers, it's time for him to go.

Or think about it this way, if after you hand a client their report, you catch them after work and say, "tits or GTFO," Rain Man is probably going to be upset.

Plus....what was with the "Good! Glad you liked it" when he first commented on the picture?


"No more.... She was asking for it.

NO MORE."

Yes, there is something VERY wrong with saying that, as a columnist, representing a newspaper. You are basically saying that females are an inferior type of human or sub-human who can't be reasoned with, that they are unworthy of you debating an issue with them.

He didn't say "I'm not going to argue with you because you're a woman and you don't know shit". He simply said....I'm not going to argue with a woman.

I kind of read that as the same thing.

Jimmya 12-04-2014 02:22 PM

Agree with Rain Man 100%

The Franchise 12-04-2014 02:23 PM

I think what it comes down to is that he obviously had issues and probably crossed the line but this woman took it as an opportunity to blow it out of proportion and get a guy fired.

Beef Supreme 12-04-2014 03:52 PM

On the one hand, it's ridiculous that someone got fired over this. On the other hand, twitter is stupid.
