I completely believe liberals are this collectively stupid and can’t think or think critically to save themselves.
But, then, we’ve seen their justifications for global warming, communism, free health care for all, and so many other things that have absolutely no logic or sense behind them. The list of their “stupid” is so vast, it’s really just easiest to simply substitute “liberal” for “stupid” from now on.
I found something else interesting in her whining.
First she complains:
Most of them were men who are prolific on Twitter. (Going out and doing actual reporting? That’s harder.)
Then just a little later:
… we mentioned a tweet, written by someone else...
I guess actual reporting is harder for Mara.
She’s the exact demographic that Mattel was going for with their “Teen Talk Barbie” that said “Math class is tough!” (often mistaken for “Math is hard!”)

"Troll" now seems to be an all-purpose word for internet pests.
My great sin was trivial, harmless, silly. What’s it like when people are trying to cancel you for a math mistake? Weird, and maddening and painful.
People get fired for a lot less. But were they really trying to get her fired? Or just making her take her well-deserved lumps?
I am a black woman who writes for The New York Times and appears on national TV. And if you’re black in America, no matter who you are, what you accomplish or how hard you work, there will always be people to remind you that you are black, that you are “just a ni**er.”
A colleague at The Times, an African-American woman, wrote to me on Friday afternoon, “They resent that you exist.”
White people never get pestered on the internet when they make a stupid mistake?
It didn’t help that I write for a newspaper where my colleagues are assiduously working to hold a rogue president accountable every day.
It also didn't help that there are people out there trying to hold the Times accountable everyday.
Matt Vespa, call home. I think mom needs to explain something to you.
Look, I can empathize with the 'being bad at math' part. It was actually Andrew Kaczynski who asked how this error got on television, and he works for the very anti-Trump CNN.
It's nice that Kaczynski had a place to go when the "Unabomber" thing didn't work out for him.
“Cooke was hired by lying through her teeth. Cooke falsely claimed she had a degree from Vassar College and a master’s degree from the University of Toledo, and that she had received a journalism award while at the Toledo Blade. Cooke had attended Vassar for just a year, and had received only a bachelor’s degree from Toledo.”
Sounds like she is getting her resume ready to run for a US $inator post.

Just another dumb blonde.
Oh...wait...
She made it a ‘black’ issue?
I think white guy Brian Williams was right there with her...
She digs herself deeper.
I am not sure on this but at least the moderator, Brian Williams had an earpiece in his ear. He gets advice from the production area. They might have caught it, but decided the loss of spontaneous talk may have been more important than accuracy. The morons in front of the camera are there because of a pleasant countenance, not intellectual gravitas.

She’s Black? She looks like an very Tan Italian Girl with a bad Perm in the top picture.
........heheheh.......possible, very possible.........
If you had two dollars and you divided it between two people, how would each get. Very good! Answer: 1 dollar.
Now a tougher one. You're not as stupid you say you are.
Now, 100 dollars between 100? Yes! 1 dollar.
Now, 1,000 dollars between 1,000 people? 1 dollar. Yes, you're a genius!
How about 10,000 dollars between 10,000 people? Yes, 1 dollar. You are just too smart for TV!!
100,000 between 100,000 people? Yes, 1 dollar! Einstein!
1 million between 1 million? 1 dollar. Yes, too easy for you!
How about 100 million between 100 million! 1 dollar, Yay!
The next one is really tricky. 500 million between 500 million people? 1 dollar is correct.
The toughest of the day. 500 million between 250 million people. Yes, it's 2 dollars.
Wow, You've really got the idea!!
Now how about 500 million between 327 million? Oh, no, it's NOT 1 million. Too bad, you were so close!
With an error of six orders of magnitude (1 million = 106) in my favor, I’d be paying FR’s whole budget out of petty cash.
Ha, good comment and pics!
Probably angling to become a news anchor. So she felt she had to adopt the white hair style.
Now this controversy means she’ll never make it big time.
Personally, I think she was set up. Why didn’t the editors check what she was about to say? Did you rub somebody wrong on the way up? Just speculation.
Very interesting story about this Janet Cooke. Even had to return the Pulitzer! Wow.
She’s following in the footsteps of the great imposter, King Boobamba.
I’m actually a bit sad that the other faker, Injun Elizabeth Warren, folded her teepee. So much fun to read how FReepers did compete to come up with the most clever insults.
It’s an honest mistake. To me, it underscores her inability to check her work. She doesn’t take her responsibility as a journalist seriously enough to check for truth!
We know that 60% of TV viewers probably accepted what she said without thinking much about it. It’s as if Leftists are being fed their daily ration of talking points to share at the water cooler.
——Honest mistake-——
I prefer to believe a educationally challenged black woman that lacks basic arithmetical skills went public beyond her ability
