Tweet of the year

A PR executive for a major media company who Tweeted a racist 'joke' on Friday that sparked a social media revolt was unaware she had become front page news because she posted the message while boarding a long-haul flight.

Justine Sacco - the Communications Director for IAC, a parent company for Vimeo, OkCupid, Tinder, CollegeHumor, and Dictionary.com -was flying to Cape Town when she Tweeted: 'Going to Africa. Hope I don't get AIDS. Just Kidding. I'm White!'

The post had been retweeted over 3000 times and was picked up by news sites around the world by the time Sacco landed in Africa.

And she's in PR too. Should be fired for basic misunderstanding of twitter.

That's funny. But, oh well, white people can't make comments like this without getting in trouble.  ::)

Wow. What an idiot she is.

How the hell did she think people would react?

I see why someone would find it funny, but I personally think it's really lame. I don't find it offensive however; just incredibly lame.

She can kiss her job goodbye.

That goes for men too.

It shows laziness and I would be suspect of her personal hygiene.

Yes, honesty goes a long way.

Great sense of humor as well.

She's a keeper for sure.

yes, but not the same. Women have a different standard.

women are supposed to be the housecleaners, in the kitchen, doing the dishes and laundry.

just the way it is.

Oprah Winfrey can say the spread of aids in Africa is because the white man is holding back the cure.....and she is touted as a hero.

It's a joke, a lame joke at that, but this bullshit about losing a job over not being PC is a fucking farce.

QFT.   More and more pics of these women have them surrounded by a mess.

It makes one assume their pussies smell like wet moss.

She shouldn't lose the job because of the lame joke.

She should lose the job because she is clearly to stupid to realize the consequences of her actions. Whether or not one agrees if it is offensive is not the point; the point is EVERYONE with half a brain KNOWS that some insecure little sissies are going to be offended. How could she not see it coming?

I wouldn't want to employ someone who didn't realize that.

Again...nothing wrong with a lame joke....but know your fucking audience. Twitter is a worldwide thing.

Dumb broad.

I think by the time she landed her name had removed from the company website, and was probably on the way to getting shit-canned. What a maroon.

Just how do you think she got to that position?  Hot, slob and a drinker.

She will blow her way to the top somewhere else.
