'Rants and Retorts- A Commentary on Internet Discourse'

Polite on Society, March 9, 2017

'Comments aren’t going away,” Samuels said. “You have to decide for yourself if you’re going to engage with the trolls. Pick your battles wisely and think about how you engage online and make sure you’re not adding to the negativity.'

'Rants & Retorts Author Talk on Racism & Bigotry in Online News Commentary'

'Richard Prince's Book Notes, Part 2'

'Samuels told MSR in a recent phone interview that she began examining online racist comments as early as 2008. “These were not mere differences of opinion when stories had to do with African Americans,” she pointed out. “Those writings often attacked the entire Black race.'

'I'm all for shutting it down," said Anita M. Samuels, author of the book Rants & Retorts: How Bigots Got a Monopoly on Commenting About News Online. "I understand the tenets of free speech, but it's gotten so out of hand.'

'I wanted to give a first-person view of how this affects people and how it affected me. Because if you read enough of it, it will affect you, even if you don’t want it to,” said Samuels, who was at the Bronx Documentary Center in Melrose last Saturday, for a discussion and book-signing.'
