The New York Times has welcomed a new employee, but as the Daily Caller reports, its newest hire has a history of racist tweets against white people.

The Times announced on Wednesday that they hired Sarah Jeong to join their editorial board. Jeong previously wrote for the Verge and authored a book, “The Internet of Garbage.”

After the hire was announced, Twitter lit up with users showing Jeong’s extreme hatred of white people.

One tweet reads, “Oh man it’s kind of sick how much joy I get from being cruel to old white men.”

Another mentions white people are “only fit to live underground like groveling goblins.”

The Times has yet to comment on Jeong’s racist past.
