USA Today has fired race and inclusion editor Hemal Jhaveri after her comments in the wake of the Boulder, Colorado, shooting. The firing raises the question of what USA Today expected when it embraced race-obsessed politics in its sports section.
Jhaveri immediately claimed that it is “always an angry white man” who commits a mass shooting, one of many people who decided to make the shooting about race before it was revealed that the shooter was a Syrian immigrant. Jhaveri said in a Medium post that she was let go the next day for her tweet and that USA Today had previously found a couple of her tweets “problematic,” including one where she “called out a reporter’s white privilege.”
