Washington Post global
opinions editor Karen Attiah reportedly declared, “White women are
lucky that we are just calling them ‘Karen’s.' And not calling for
revenge,” in a since-deleted tweet.
Attiah,
who is black, listed multiple things that she feels white women
are responsible for and warned her 185,000 followers that worse things
could happen than simply being referred to as “Karen,” which
has emerged as a disparaging term for white women.
The Washington Post declined comment when reached by Fox News.
Washington Examiner’s Siraj Hashmi, who tweeted a daily list of people who need their phone taken away after a Twitter gaffe, was among the journalists to capture an image of the message before it was deleted.
Jerry Dunleavey, another Washington Examiner reporter, noted that she doubled down in another now-deleted tweet.
"I’m just saying. Be happy we are calling for equality. And not actual revenge,” Attiah reportedly wrote.
