Well, three quarters of the way through the article we got our answer.
> The April issue of the journal Antitrust Chronicle, edited by Mr. Medvedovsky, features a drawing of a bearded man on the cover right above the words “Hipster Antitrust.” In the middle of an ... there’s a photograph of a bearded man taking a selfie next to the chapter heading “Battle of the Beards.” It is perhaps relevant that only one of the 12 authors or experts in the issue is female.
> The Hipster issue was sponsored by Facebook, another sign that Big Tech is striving to shape the monopoly-law debate. The company declined to comment.
Interesting. I'm annoyed that the article moved on well enough for me to come post a comment on the comment that stuck out like a sore thumb.
- whatshisface 8y agoThat explains the beard but what about the accusation of sexism? >It is perhaps relevant that only one of the 12 authors or experts in the issue is female. Hopefully that's not all that was said in support of it.
- prepend 8y agoIt must be sexism because 11/12 authors were male. Obviously. If you disagree, you are sexist. Also, my cat is sexist because she had five kittens and all five are male. I don’t like discounting ideas because of the flaws of their originators, but I’m likely going to ignore all articles that make such spurious claims without evidence.
