Earlier this week a startup named Geeklist was called out on Twitter for a promotional video which apparently featured a woman dancing around in her underwear. (I say "apparently" because the video has since been made private.) The Geeklist founders acknowledged that that was problematic -- and then, inexplicably, they went right off the rails. Click through that link to see some jawdropping bad judgement verging on misogyny; they responded to the woman who complained by Twitter-cc'ing her employer(!) while calling on her to "take it offline" and explaining they "weren't cool with the angry tone." While their own haughty tone, of course, was perfectly acceptable...photo album journal journal photo album relativity ediscovery
