This was in relation to the Boulder shooting. USA Today editor fired for tweet blaming Boulder shooting on 'White man', blames 'alt-right Twitter' | Fox News
Hemal Jhaveri, the "race and inclusion" editor of USA Today IMMEDIATELY blamed an "Angry white man" for the Boulder shooting. Of course it wasn't an angry white man. It was an angry Syrian-born immigrant named Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa. All of his victims were white, but she never bothered to mention that either. "Don't clutter the issue with facts! We have a NARRATIVE to support!"
And because 2021 is insane, this mostly played out on Twitter.
Jhaveri deleted the tweet, which apparently was not enough to save her job.
Because screen shots existed, and she was distraught that other people would treat her the way she treated everyone else.
One of the accounts she spotlighted belongs to popular YouTube host and frequent Fox News guest Dave Rubin, who mocked, "I'm shocked and appalled that the Race and Inclusion editor at a major newspaper is, in fact, a racist."
She is claiming some BS reason that she got fired, never admitting that she got the facts wrong, jumped to a racist and non-inclusive position based on no evidence, and basically showed that she was completely unsuited for "race and inclusion" editor.
But then this is the era where no one wants to be responsible. She should be free to rail against whites every day and face no impact, and it you object to that you are hopeless bigot. Of course her racist tirades against whiteness are not racist in her mind.
