Two reporters engaged in a very public feud on Saturday after one of them accused the other of “harassment” for calling out sexism.

editors told the newsroom that the retweet was “reprehensible” and “demeaning.” But on Saturday evening, the controversy only intensified, asreporter Jose Del Real accused Sonmez of “harassment” for calling out Weigel’s retweet, suggesting she was “rallying the internet to attack him for a mistake.”

Del Real's comments sparked a bitter back-and-forth, with Sonmez arguing that it trivializes the challenges women face with sexism and misogyny to shrug off Weigel’s retweet as a simple mistake. “If you are more outraged over the fact that I pointed out a sexist tweet than over the sexism itself … all I can say is that speaks volumes about your own priorities,” she wrote.
