CNN senior reporter Dylan Byers sent an ill-advised tweet Tuesday night, and left-wing Twitter users ate him alive for it.
Byers wrote:
Beyond the pain/humiliation women have endured (which is of course the paramount issue), it’s worth taking stock of the incredible drain of talent from media/entertainment taking place right now. Never has so much talent left the industry all at once.

Twitter users, many of them liberals, were not happy with what Byers had said. Even a fellow CNN colleague joined in the criticism:
I think we can find some suitable replacements

Yeah geez what on Earth will we do without the sociopathy of the Kevin Spaceys and Harvey Weinsteins of the world, won't someone think of Bret Ratner's CONTRIBUTIONS

this is what a sexist asshole tweets. go fuck yourself. let’s fill the “void of talent” with that of the incredible women actors who have been pushed down for far too long.

This tweet is the most embarrassing thing I've seen this week, and I saw a dog wearing a full rain suit today.
