Twitter reacts to the Kevin Myers fall-out, and it’s not holding back

by

Normally tasked with creating the headlines, Irish journalist, Kevin Myers, found himself the subject of a number this weekend after the public took grave exception to a column he wrote on the gender pay gap.

The column, which was subsequently dubbed 'anti-Semitic' and 'misogynistic', led the editor of the Irish version of The Sunday Times, Frank Fitzgibbon, to issue a statement apologising for the piece.

"As the editor of the Ireland edition, I take full responsibility for this error of judgement," he said. "This newspaper abhors anti-Semitism and did not intend to cause offence to Jewish people."

It has since been announced that Kevin Myers will no longer be writing for The Sunday Times, and Twitter has wasted no time voicing their opinion on the argument put forth by the controversial columnist.

We'll let them take it from here.
