'This is not OK': N.L. newspaper uses front page to blast sexist 'trolls'


The St. John's Telegram — which calls itself the People's Paper — used its front page Friday to blast what it says is "a huge lack of respect" for female journalists and women in general. Managing editor Steve Bartlett used the headline "This is not OK!" Bartlett quoted some of the remarks by commenters, whom he described as "anonymous trolls and online arseholes." St. John's Telegram used its front page to fight back against the "online arseholes" victimizing female reporters. Despite some "incredible support" for Bradbury from many men, Bartlett said the tone of a very vocal minority displays an ugliness that men and women must fight together.
