> Some of the attendees had lied about their gender identity on their conference registrations, said Cullen White, the chief impact officer with AnitaB.org, the nonprofit that organizes the conference.
How does this individual know whether people lied about their gender identity?
> Videos posted to social media showed scenes of men flocking around recruiters, running into event venues and cutting in front of women to get an interview slot.
The link for "cutting in front of women" doesn't appear to show that. It shows men standing in line, and a couple confusing videos with crowds. What is the part where a man is cutting?
> Women were disproportionately affected by those cuts, making up 69.2% of all tech layoffs, according to The Women Tech Network.
Were women more likely to be junior, and therefore more likely to be cut? It's almost as if NPR just wants to parrot a narrative.

I’m willing to bet that number includes a good chunk of tech recruiters (which tend to be female). And yeah a lot of recruiters got laid off in the last year
- crackercrews 3y agoI was giving them the benefit of the doubt and assuming that they were referring to tech roles. If not, your point is spot on.
