Dear Forbes Magazine

[hannahchan]

Fuck you. Look, I've done social trend reporting, and I know it's tough, but you're a goddamn national magazine with a serious reputation. You can't just print any old piece of shit that (pardon the mixed metaphors) regurgitates hackneyed notions from the 1950s without examining their sources or underlying causes

Wherein. . .

I can't respond without writing something that could get me arrested.

I wrote Forbes a letter to the editor. We'll see if they print it. I quoted a bit of it to my coworker who linked me the story in the first place, then commented that it made me once again wish for the magical power to bitch-slap people remotely with the power of my mind. "I think you just did," she said.

Gawker so kindly provided handy Cliffsnotes.

It looks like Forbes pulled the story from their website. Guess they aren't planning to stand behind it . . .like a good woman would for her man, no matter how insensitive he might be at times . . .

[hannahchan]

Yeah, it was kind of an obnoxious response: "Before my female readers break their nails pounding out angry e-mails to me..." Dude, you are not helping...

Slate sucks.
