a certain kind of mainstream niche way of thinking about gender. coming out of judith butler and other scholars as a part of what we put under the umbrella of wokeness. so maybe some economic views that people term woke. socialism and things like that, maybe evenrejuvenation of marxism . they are not all the same thing but often times are clustered together not everybody subscribes of what's driving us

all crazy >> other questions we can turn to. >> on this perspective >> i couldn't agree more, what does it mean? >> that is a problem in the general pretty good job trying to definable not defining term from a social perspective, i cannot measure and i have no jihad and engage with the. i agree things are very soppy and a finery approach the world is far too complicated to any of this in my view. i completely agree, another question that we have willspo weakness, were we exhaust herself or will he get worse?

one piece of data incidentally, i'm a data person we sink insulation much more prominent among the colonials on treadmill videos 24 and under it's a lot less interesting to the older generation cancellation is not necessarily a good thing. i published a few pieces that have written about thatso i'm curious to know what everybody thinks . >> i've been working on a project with someone who had was canceled in gq and he is interested in what kind of rehabilitation there might be. and do i think that i won't say systemic but there are ten women who were abused by

them and it seems true that they were printed for quality keep it in political terms. ested in forgiveness and redemption as a religious person but i'm not sure that we want a world where that kind of cancellation is somehow no longer allowed. and frankly, i launched lost my contract at yahoo! news because i published something marissa mayer found embarrassing but announced myself as a christian. and she was the boss there. and i have no kind oftenure . it didn't violate anything. she could renew my could i have no tenure, didn't violate anything, she could renew my contract or not and i'm not sure that cancellation was

something we want to see disappear, even with my own anti-asian slayers on twitter. several years ago if it's decided that it creates a hostile work environment or hemorrhaging of people who can't work for this person i can't work with someone i'm uncomfortable with edward for michael eisner. >> he didn't hire them or fire them if they in here today onn the board. i don't know i want to stop that cancellation cometh very free market you recoupable your comfortable with and people are

no longer comfortable with anti-asian slayers and their twitter in the cold hard world and also laws that govern the stuff. i don't think any of you would like to see the world where someone who sexually abused or assaulted ten people who work for them would be canceled. >> that's another term ten people. >> that's why said he considers himself having been canceled there certain people that flirted aggressively with someone one night.

what does it mean they attempted cancellation. >> they wanted to get rid of it but they didn't like that i question certain things. in the 70s my father was academia and a colleague had cancer uses for why she could not publish it was publisher parent status building that seemed unfairly she had the publish this in the seemed i'm sympathetic, cancel culture of

these limit cases where everyone could decide if the person was well-intentioned. >> she describes something real exacerbated by ecological change and had an opportunity or facing consequences of health accountable often time somebody inadvertently transgresses to be established in a shifting norm, it is called out publicly in the new digital valve that existed we all have to navigate about rules or guidelines you made an example in place of employment is targeted in the institution is unable to in the heat of the moment gauge how long ago boss, how serious is going to be in a off desert due diligence to find

out what the proper response should be or no response that will be the case. ends up terminating the person or turning them into likelihood. and just as often as our more active as not their accused of a master can never travel around as fast as'r the beginning. >> when i went to income and had to be trained in marketing i were not supposed to talk about ouremotional experiences . >> upset i thought were not supposed to talk about her emotional experiences. >> it sounds like something happened to you and they don't think social media should be in the hr department and assets of

institutions. recently from clay bray said people should put in the contract that there is a 90 day cooling off period that has to happen or the company could terminate them from social media they cannot react too quickly. >> the truth coming from quinn base. about this idea i want is my contract right now. >> that is fantastic things feel hot there is a formal idiom there. another time i would like to talk about awake and asleep as thomas said woke in that just

shook lose anyone saying about x anymore. >> i was being told that i was using inappropriate languagee when speaking with ebonics. >> before we've been out of time i want to kick it back, i know i to the did to your book and everyone has to go. i like this question it's a question that is puzzling what they can and cannot write, this is where editors are surprised. i pitched a number of things and

if it doesn't fit with the editor wants i spent years working on the data behind it doesn't always matter the question what extent do we end up with only the left can there be a metal is very objective news anymore, pre-covered what i loved about it when i would check into a hotel they would ask me what newspaper i would like.i i loved it. i like that they're not purely objective they say here's her point of view and were to go with it. we'll talk about the new york times is bee papering record, i think you said in theat book is hard to be that about the particular that ideology to it. hasn't really ever been t a mide and demand of the middle with a be a nonpartisan or appropriate balance news organization.

>> thank you for that question it allows me to go back to the book i talk about what looked like a partisan divide is actually cost divide i'm an editor i one screen cnn and the other fox news. it's pretty much pathetic it comes down to whether a working class or college degree and the data boxes up in everybody's following analytics. a lot of what we think of is partisanship or political divided about class and that is how i see the divided our media i think partisanship is not a problem as long as everybody's represented and bipartisan fabric are real conservative

media landscape that abandoned the economic class in the liberal media landscape that is a being that the working class economically but they also smeared their values, fox news is catering to the audience and o after not smeared topic captie audience that hunter talk about the economic incentive which i really wish they would. i saw this by looking at the 19th centurys journalism they look at the point of newspapers in the working class in newspapers for elite every subgroup patterns paper and yet a situation in the 1920s there were so many communist newspapers in new h york city tt people had for communist newspapers that they would never dream of reading then the communist newspaper that they

read. the problem because of the pressures of digital media and i go into that in my book all of the mainstream outlets objective are conservative and going to the same highly educated liberal elite because they can track how much money you make and where you live and what you do for living and they can track this through data and they know what to publish in order to get those eyeballs and that attention. that's the real problem is not the media is partisan for all of the media is partisan on theme conservative elite or highlyd educated to the real problem the only way to fix that you're not to be able to change a new york times the only thing you can change your heart and how you respond to this news in a play

and make repeatedly i will end with this, if you are reading something on the internet and you feel the surge of rage, someone is making money someone is making a lot of money when you feelfe that feeling i would urge people do not let your heart become that place by hitting your fellow americans. you have complete control what happens in here and i would urge you to take that back a that control. >> let me do the final question. >> where can people go to not have that rate whether it's about a news or little news and find your nonpolitical space. >> democracies bill on having a tolerance and a muscle within
