*Sigh*, I'm done. Go brood in a cave somewhere, DarkKnight.

Originally posted by DarkKnight(OfTheSoul)Jerry Seinfeld, The Atlantic, Bill Maher, Chris Rock are on the other side of the issue. No sexism here. Just a "micro-aggression" mishandled by both the writer and the Nicholl, and now the media.
And for the record, I've never commented on whether the comments were sexist. I've only said that at the very least, they were unprofessional (as have BSR and Emily).Last edited by UpandComing; 08-28-2015, 08:03 AM.

The lesson here is that there are often ways to achieve your goals without getting there at the expense of others. It's worth the effort in the long run.Last edited by opie; 08-28-2015, 10:58 AM.

Re: Nicholl 2015...
Thanks, Scriptonian and BKDodger
At first I was gonna jump on the "bash the writer" bandwagon based on the initial set of posts on here, but then I paused to actually read through all the Facebook posts, articles, etc., and all the anger directed at her just didn't make sense to me. I'm comforted by the fact that prominent voices such as Bitter Script Reader, Emily Blake, and Nicholl itself are on our side.

Too funny how people are referring to her leaving a comment on the FB page as "going nuclear." With a bazooka even. Yesterday I left a two-star Yelp review for a dry cleaner who shrunk all my sweaters to child-sized. Didn't realize I was launching a heat-seeking missile.
Also, who's even looking at the FB page besides us nerdy, obsessive, writers? (Overall it's a good page - very well curated. My favorite is when they post the first page of various scripts!)

Not getting back into that debate. Already made my arguments in that respect clear.

I hope we agree that the Nicholl mea culpa published within a few hours of Koller's initial post should have satisfied her concern, if resolving the issue was truly her priority. Her actions before and since then suggest otherwise.

Originally posted by opie View PostAs is Koller's (and others) ongoing gratuitous dragging of Nicholl through the mud.
She's just responding to media inquiries about a troublesome exchange that took place in a public forum. And criticizing a) the reader who gave her the offending notes and b) the Nicholl Facebook rep who gave an insincere apology.
There are certainly people participating in a witch hunt against Nicholl. I don't think she's one of them, but her post clearly motivated many of them to go on that hunt.
There are also people clearly participating in a witch hunt against her. And frankly, it's just sad.
