You sure the journo wasn't suspended for doxxing a bunch of people?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51279486
On Monday she also tweeted an image of her email inbox showing her attackers, which included the names and email addresses of the senders.

The journalist contacted her editors to tell them she was being threatened. Washington Post managing editor Tracy Grant then told her to delete the tweets, and sent her an email suggesting she "consider a hotel or a friend's place for this evening", the New York Times reports.

She was later told she had been suspended with pay.

A statement by Grant later said Sonmez had "displayed poor judgment that undermined the work of her colleagues", and that she was on paid leave until the paper could determine if the posts broke their social media policy.

if you're sending death threats to a news reporter for mentioning that a dead person had a contentious life you don't deserve anonymity
so most of you dudes don't think it is inappropriate for some news people to bring up kobe bryant's past rape allegations?

But "suspended with pay for doxxing dozens of bad people" isn't the same as "suspended for calling Kobe a rapist". The latter may be a free speech issue, but the former is almost assuredly a case of violating policy. Hiding the doxxing to make it entirely about the first tweets is disingenuous.

I don't think it's inappropriate.

This. If you can't stand the tweet, stay out of the kitchen.

No but at the same time she has called for other people to be directly fired over things they've said on social media so cannot say I feel sorry for her.
