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.

Before you rant about stupidity, you should learn the difference between "to", "too", and "two".

Might help with making the message credible.

She was stupid for saying this. Not because she does not have the right to, but because she should have been aware of the consequences. Shit, especially working for social media companies.

Oh my....the dreaded "consequences". For once I would like for one of these fuckers to stand up and say "you're goddam right I said that, and I meant it".

Piers Morgan and Anderson Cooper's heads would fucking explode.

The only consequences there should be (in a good society not yet tainted) would be her getting a promotion and a raise.

Who cares about one fucking grammatical error. I'm sure I have some sort of typo in every post I type. I don't double check.

What you don't realize is that there is a world outside of Getbig. Believe it or not MOST people don't think the way your typical Getbigger thinks. I imagine the majority of society would consider us here at Getbig, a bunch of degenerates.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2527330/Blonde-female-PR-executive-tweets-Going-Africa-Hope-I-dont-AIDS-Just-kidding-Im-white-causes-international-outrage-likely-fired.html

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.




She shouldn't have lent her password to Runningmom....

^^^^This.

Agree 100%. But do you really think she didn't know what she was doing? It's not like she made an elusive comment on an elusive site. She was very pedestrian with her message, and in a global way. She had to have known what she was doing. No one is that stupid, are they?

Her career in PR is over, unless she was going after that unique niche of working PR for the neo-nazi foundation. In which case, tip of the hat for having a vision for where she wants to take her career. That's commitment!  ;D

HFF, Chaos and Kwon:

I never stated that the consequences were right or just or that she should have been fired. I just stated that when someone says something like that, especially in the 21st century, its inevitable that there will be consequences. Its the society we live in. Given her occupation, you think she would have been more cautions.

She's acting trashy now.

Taking it to the next level to show "how sorry she isn't"......really playing it up.  ::)

My god what a classless society we have become.

Social networking is one big fucking joke.  :-\
