I was very pleased to have gotten a response from GQ magazine yesterday, and since so many of you ask me to share if I got a reply, here it is.
We received your letter and absolutely understand that we have caused many of our readers and their loved ones pain. Hurting anyone’s feelings or being disrespectful or cruel was certainly never our intent, but your letter helped us understand how poorly chosen our words were. What we initially posted was insensitive and ill-informed, and we’ve removed the offensive language from the website. We deeply regret our error in judgment. There is no excuse. We are both very sorry.
Sincerely,
Sean Fennessey, editor, GQ.com
John B. Thompson, writer, GQ.com
Thank you to all you emailed GQ in response to their article and to all those you read the blog yesterday. I also wanted to let everyone know PlainPrairie is now on Facebook. Please look us up and become a friend!!!!
