SnapChat CEO's Emails Didn't Disappear, Come Back To Shame Him
(NPR): http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2014/05/28/316715640/snapchat-ceos-emails-didnt-disappear-come-back-to-shame-him?ft=1&f=1001
Gawker's ValleyWag obtained emails (Note: racy language) from
Spiegel's fraternity days circa 2009, a not-so-distant past in
which his primary emphasis seemed to be getting sorority girls
drunk so they would sleep with him and his fraternity brothers.
Women are referred to as "bitches" and "sororisluts," considered
objects to be "peed on," and one missive features "shooting lasers
at fat chicks."
(The gender gap in the tech industry will be the focus of a monthlong
series on Tell Me More.)
In between trying to hire people for the company that would become
Snapchat, his emails further show he makes fun of competing fraternity
members by calling them "gay."

With considerable self-control, I will refrain from comment here.
