Title: Friedman's piece has Finke fuming
Posted By: Jim Romenesko
 
From NIKKI FINKE: I find it shameful that Jon Friedman has chosen to write such a misogynist piece that trivializes me and what I do. It begins with a bit-o-praise, then proceeds to dissemble me. No mention of my extensive journalism background. No mention of my recent award. He wouldn't have dared write an article like this about a male business journalist working for a mainstream newspaper. Several comments attributed to me were uttered by Friedman, while others were post-interview phone chatter put on the record by him contrary to our agreement. In several places, my quotes were taken out of context, and some of his own comments are not supported by the facts. Everyone knows how hard it is to craft a serious career and reputation, and how easily it can be undone by an article like this. [Permalink]
