'Still a LOSER': Fired Kirk-Hating Journo CHEERS Forcing WaPo to Take Her Disgusting Self Back

In a stunning, disgusting act of institutional masochism, an arbitrator has forced the Washington Post to rehire Karen Attiah—the race-obsessed opinion writer it wisely axed last year for her gleefully tone-deaf Bluesky posts in the hours after Charlie Kirk’s assassination — complete with a fat back pay check for her trouble.

Attiah is now preening about her “victory” for free speech after refusing to offer even the barest decency toward a murdered conservative she dismissed as just another “white man who espoused hatred and violence,” and the Post gets the privilege of welcoming this particular brand of compassion back into the fold.

All of that being said, we can't quite bring ourselves to feel all that sorry for WaPo:

BREAKING:

The Washington Post fired me last year for speaking the truth after Charlie Kirk's killing. I fought back.

I'm happy to announce: I won my case against the Washington Post.

They have been ordered to reinstate me immediately. ✊🏾https://t.co/TISoTvFFO9

From The New York Times:

A private arbitrator has ordered The Washington Post to rehire the opinion columnist Karen Attiah, who was fired in September over her social media posts about the assassination of the conservative activist Charlie Kirk. It also ordered the company to compensate her with back pay.
Sarah Miller Espinosa, the arbitrator, said in a written decision Thursday that The Post “did not have good and sufficient cause” to terminate Ms. Attiah and “violated” its labor agreement, according to a copy of the decision shared with The New York Times by Ms. Attiah’s lawyers.

Imagine trying to work with this horrible woman.
