I disagree that she has to pretend to be shocked and blindsided in order to publicize that she was fired for being right. I have no interest in journalists who play-act things for attention. I'm confident she could still do the podcast rounds and talk about how inevitable it was that she would be fired for this and how this kind of opinion is why leftists are locked out of participation in major media outlets, and the effect would be the same without the chud trappings.
The play acting is the thing I am identifying as chud trappings. She's a journalist, she knows this happens to people with good opinions on Israel, etc and so forth as I've already said. I don't know more about journalism than she does but she doesn't need to pretend to be shocked to get me to sympathize.

There's nothing playful about it.
She really got canned for really writing a real Op-Ed that really called Israel an apartheid state.
she knows this happens to people with good opinions on Israel
Part of the outrage she expressed was in how uncontroversial her statements were. So uncontroversial that Israeli state bureaucracts were here sources.
she doesn’t need to pretend to be shocked
She has every reason to be outraged. What they did to silence her was outrageous.
Then I guess I give her too much credit, and perhaps I do know more about journalism than she does? I'm inclined to be more charitable and assume I don't, so here I am.

That's fine. You're entitled to your own media diet.
If complaining that you've been blacklisted flags you as a chud, I'm not sure what you think a chud is.
