Baron Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Dec 10, 2015 -> 01:05 PM) Cubs beat writers. Just saw something from Julie Di-whatever the hell her last name is. She has an interesting reputation after the Kane saga. Always had good interactions with her. But that was a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Having worked with women in newsrooms, the personal emails, stalking and comments they receive far surpasses anything you can imagine. This has been a well discussed and documented problem beyond Julie Dicaro and not something to dismiss because you don't like her personally. I'm not trying to get political here, but DiCaro cynically exploits a victim mentality to insulate herself from criticism while she deliberately seeks out persecution on social media. It's just trolls trolling trolls to infinity and she milks her BS protected status as a woman to pretend like she's somehow above the fray.

Okay, that's a personal opinion of DiCaro, but that's not what Rock said: Shes making a movie or something about sexism on the internet. Anyone who bases their opinion of people on twitter or comment sections on articles needs to have their head examined. Assuming this won't be just "Julie Dicaro in INTERNET", I'm just responding to the fact that that issue is very real, and a very hard problem in journalism. If you know any woman in news, ask what type of reader/viewer responses they get vs. a male. It is something very heightened for females. You may think DiCaro seeks this out, but many people who are just reporting on regular things get harrassed, have their address sent to them, told they will be attacked, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how she became involved in sports radio other than to give Dan Bernstein another nodding head when he takes the afternoon show down a path that reminds me of MSNBC whenever he can tie a sports issue to some social issue, but she really hurt whatever reputation she had with that Kane story. Now, I see she has become a Cubs insider out of nowhere and spends her day being outraged over twitter responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
