Even if Jeong is 100% not guilty, it is still distressing that her employer applied a completely different standard to her than to Quinn Norton. Or frankly, almost anyone else. People have their careers ruined because old tweets of theirs are exhumed without any context. Here, they are giving a massive amount of leeway to her to construct a convenient context to explain away her racist words. I'm more offended by the hypocrisy of the NYT and the wider media establishment. Suddenly, if you have their favor, we need to take your word for it that you were only being ironic with your racism, and totes didn't mean for your words to be taken at face value.
