I definitely agree that a PR person for a company should be held to a higher standard. But it is sad that the company cowered to the demands to an online mob.

I definitely agree that a PR person for a company should be held to a higher standard. But it is sad that the company cowered to the demands to an online mob. Based on her description (which is obvious biased so take w/ a grain of salt), nothing she said is controversial. It's a reasonable disagreement on policy position. If their policy was "don't talk about politics or policy at all" then that is one thing. But the policy really more like, "its okay unless some people on twitter are butthurt and now you have prostrate yourself as a racist" (at which point we'll fire you for being an admitted racist). And I'm sure it won't end their headaches, as she'll probably go on Fox News routinely to shit talk Levi's for hating America.
