From the official apology:<p><i>We apologize as well if our handling of the tweets offended anyone.</i><p>One of the things that I hate most in the world is when people use the word "if" in an apology. You should either make a real apology about being offensive, or stand your ground.
I'm not sure why, but this article and supporting discussion was removed:<p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3739913" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3739913</a>
Oh hey, a stupid slapfight on Twitter.<p>Frankly, Shanley was really offensive in her approach and Christian's responses seem pretty measured. Not sure what the big deal is.
I don't know how anyone in the right mind can defend the geeklist guys.. the video is offensive but worse, the response on twitter is subtly threatening and childish. Sad.
The video in question has been made private, but somehow one can still access it via the group.<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/groups/eos7d/videos/27758336" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/groups/eos7d/videos/27758336</a>
Loading this article was a colossal fail on my android. All I could see was the title, a bunch of floating random boxes, and the facebook comments at the bottom.
