Hi there,

Yes, I can confirm this. I asked Ellen about how it feels to be a target of brutal criticism and, often, outright misogyny and racism. Her response was to that in particular, and was not disparaging of moderators at large.

Also, as I said to Ms. Pao, if you read that quote in context, that is what is conveyed.

From the article:

"Reddit users have also questioned Ms. Pao’s ability to lead the company while dealing with major issues in her personal life. For nearly two years, Ms. Pao was embroiled in a well-publicized discrimination lawsuit against Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, the venture capital firm. Ms. Pao lost that case in March.

But Ms. Pao says that the most virulent detractors on the site are a vocal minority, and that most of Reddit users were not interested in what unfolded over the past 48 hours."

I think what muddies the distinction is that its immediately followed by "and that most of Reddit users..."

If those had been two separate comments, it would make the distinction of "most virulent detractors" a bit more noticeable. As it stands, it looks like there's either the virulent detractors, or the users who are not interested. When in reality, there's a large margin not calling her Hitler, yet still signing the petition for her removal. It makes it look like to her, that margin doesn't exist. Not trying to be mean or offensive by pointing this out, just trying to explain why most people are taking this part of the article the wrong way.

I think what you're saying is fair.

What's unfortunate and what seemed to give that particular line a life of its own is that it was ripped from the article without the context of the previous paragraph, which is why many folks seemed to misconstrue its meaning.

But I appreciate the feedback.

I dont want to pile on (i guess i'm going to anyway), but what struck me about the last line was "over the past 48 hours". To me, and i guess a lot of folks, that seemed to refer to the subreddit shutdown, rather than the attacks on Ms. Pao that i assume have unfortunately been happening for a while.

I can see the context now, but I would rather not need to have it explained to me.

I took it that way and I read the entire article before seeing it posted on reddit. It'd be nice if /u/ekjp would clarify her view.

and that most of Reddit users were not interested in what unfolded over the past 48 hours."

I think this part was what caused the confusion.

The Internet can be cool sometimes. Ask a CEO about a newspaper article, then ask the reporter to confirm what she said. All in a matter of 30 minutes.

I think that is why we all come here. Such a massive network of so many people. Interesting things happen here everyday.

Despite how angry and wrong we can be at one time, we can also be so beautiful.

Ugh. We're like a reflection of humanity. Congratulations Us.

Maybe if any of you friendless basement- dwelling mouth-breathers read the god damn article, you would have carried your pitchforks in the right fuckin' direction. Not that I read the article or anything...
