Jeb Bush's New Chief Of Tech Has Female Trouble: Slut Shaming

Jeb Bush's New Chief Of Tech Has Female Trouble: Slut Shaming
by Kyle Neven

So Jeb Bush is already hiring for his run for President. Matter of fact, Jeb just brought the co-founder of hipster.com on board and his name is Ethan Czahor. Ethan will be Bush's new Chief Technology Officer. But hold on... seems we have a problem. This technological wizard of the web is getting a little tangled up in one of his own making.

As reported by Rachel Maddow this evening, Mr. Czahor is now deleting his old tweets off Twitter.

 I wonder why?

Maybe because of tweets like this:

"new study confirms old belief: college female art majors are sluts, science majors are also sluts but uglier."

Bush's spokesperson told BuzzFeed News:

“Governor Bush believes the comments were inappropriate. They have been deleted at our request. Ethan is a great talent in the tech world and we are very excited to have him on board the Right to Rise PAC.”

After getting caught, Ethan Czahor apologizes via Twitter. The comments are awesome.

i deleted some old jokes i made years ago that i no longer find funny or appropriate. #learning #maturing

Oh the tangled webs we weave.

He'd better hope it's enough because he's lost the rest of us right out of the gate.
