Here's what's funny about the furries running PR: they're more worried about themselves.
This is a cycle that repeats itself every single time furries do stupid shit and it ends up on the news. Some journalist will google image search "furries" or something to get a photo of the furries in costumes. In fact, if you google search "furries" right now this image will come up from the original article, so it's clear the writer wanted a stock image.

To a journalist, they're generic costumes no different than mascots you see at sportsball games in the stands. To furries however, these animal costumes are an actual representation of their true selves and this means that using a random image of furries in the news whenever there's an article detailing furries doing stupid shit is tying them into this crime. While this usually is not intentional because said journalists are outsiders, it's interesting seeing furries more worried about the fact that they were used in an article critical of the fandom.

These are Chip's only two tweets on this matter, as the rest of his tweets
are canned left-wing political tweets. He's not worried about the fact that more and more furries keep getting involved in sex crimes, he's worried about his image.
But I can see why he'd also want to go after that news site as well (aside from the fact it's highly slanted). The
post itself is heavily critical of furries saying that kids should be nowhere near the fandom, while the photo is from
a "it's not a fetish" fluff piece.
