Senior Teen Vogue staffer who supported Alexi McCammond's ousting used ‘N-word' in decade-old tweets
[Fox News] The left eats it's own: Christine Davitt MUST resign in disgrace. :-) A senior Teen Vogue staffer who posted a letter expressing concern about Alexi McCammond for past tweets racist against Asian Americans used the N-word in tweets from over 10 years ago herself. See? Anybody can use the wayback machine, bitch Christine Davitt, senior social media manager at Teen Vogue in 2009 wrote two tweets to a friend identifying him as a "ni--a," and in 2010 used the word "ni--a" in a joke tweet. The friend appears to be White. Davitt says in multiple tweets that she is of mixed Irish and Filipino descent. McCammond, 27 and a rising reporter at Axios, had been set to take the top job at Teen Vogue before her past tweets set off a firestorm among Teen Vogue staff. After the Atlanta shooting that left eight dead Tuesday, six of them Asian American, McCammond and Teen Vogue parted ways. Neither Davitt nor McCammond or Teen Vogue could immediately be reached for comment. Davitt's tweets had not been deleted as of this writing, but after Fox News' investigative reporting her account was switched from public to private. Davitt on March 8 posted a letter on Instagram from Teen Vogue staff expressing concern to Conde Nast management about the hiring of McCammond, "in light of her past racist and homophobic tweets." "So proud of my @teenvogue colleagues. The work continues..."
