News Editor for The Root. I said what I said. Period.

Just so I understand this correctly, you are saying an article is reporting on what is alleged in a lawsuit - referencing and quoting what these women put in court documents is inaccurate because it doesn’t fit your perception of your school and how Title IX should be handled?

My name is Monique. It’s right there in my byline, at the bottom of the article in my bio AND right next to your name in the comment. Don’t play with me. Don’t disrespect my name or the spelling thereof.

Wow. I wish I could read this. Let me go do some Googling.

I’m thinking maybe they wanted the metallic lip to show more? Either way, I would have loved to have seen more of her face in natural lighting too.

So, out of curiosity, I looked up the law in Virginia. Virginia is a one-party consent state, and recording in public spaces (which a school is considered a public space if I am not mistaken) is also legal.

Because that is AP style. ALL JOURNALISTS of reputable media organizations write it this way, not just The Root. If you read this story tomorrow, the meeting happened Tuesday. It provides context.

OK listen. The reason I didn’t put my microwave on the list is because it beeps when it’s done, and then it will intermittently beep until you go take the food out or hit the stop/cancel button, and that is the most annoying shit ever.

He was in fact living in an actor’s home.

I really wanted to add my Hitachi Magic Wand to this list, but I don’t think my editors would have let that fly.

You shaking the table.

I LOVED Larson’s Passing. We read it in my English 101 class in college and that story was deep as hell! So many layers! Like they were literally passing for so many things — white, straight , rich etc. A really good book.

Judging from what is already happening, I take it as the beginning of the purge.

Maybe you are the one who needs a lesson in reading comprehension. Along with saying to accept the apology, he said to be more “thick-skinned.” That would indicate he thinks people should be able to accept racist comments as well as the apologies. Don’t be daft.

I fucking cackled.

To be clear, this is an post about Omarosa Manigault, a black woman who is showing her ass in not so good a way in the White House, and somehow you managed to make it about white people and black victimhood?

You are incorrect. There is in fact a process for applying to be verified by Twitter.

I’m guessing she was probably getting pretty miffed that people kept referring to her as ‘the token’ Omarosa and tried to force something.
