As Twitchy told you, Commentator editor John Podhoretz apologized and deactivated his Twitter account after joking that “J schools should be neutron bombed” in response to the news that NYU has hired nutjob Lauren Duca and disgraced ex-New-Yorker fact checker Talia Lavin to teach journalism courses.
Lavin, for what it’s worth, did not accept Podhoretz’s apology:
I don’t accept the apology of a man who will neither recognize nor atone for his rank, abusive misogyny. Stay gone, Podhoretz. https://t.co/55Q8hyktux

Which is interesting, because as far as we can tell, she hasn’t atoned for this tweet about nuking someone she doesn’t agree with:
and am i legally permitted to nuke its author from space? https://t.co/mcDgVZN6vP

Huh.
wow can't believe Talia Levin would call for nuking NYT op-ed writers
unbelievable, literally shaking right now. Can't believe this threat of violence against the First Amendment and free speech

Tsk, tsk, Talia. So problematic!
