'Journalists' dont' give a shit about anyone. Her concerns are mute, now they guardian gets to talk about the meta issue. The tiktok was exploitative, the guardian article was likewise exploitative. They could have not linked to the channel and also just written a description of the tiktok.

Choices were may, all of them to exploit that women directly or indirectly by piling onto the hype.

This is a fair conclusion but the tiktok itself is a primary source and so should be included so readers can draw their own conclusions.

Small thing, "moot" not "mute".

Well, it’s not like she’s been meaningfully given a voice…

My guess is you don't know this woman or even live on the same continent as her? This is a thread of 500 comments from strangers, more or less unanimously condemning the tiktok media culture that led to her abuse. It's possible most people here know more about the incident and how it affected her than what happened this week in Ukraine.

We don’t know what journalists feel or care about. We are not mind readers. For that matter, journalists described hundreds of thousands if not millions of people.

"Her concerns are mute"

Are concerns themselves normally able to talk?
