Cari Gervin was a reporter and literary editor at The (Knoxville, Tennessee) Metro Pulse before the entire staff of the alt-weekly was cut Wednesday. 
 
 The former staff of The Pulse has been overwhelmed with and love and support from the community, Gervin said. But one reaction wasn’t so positive. 
 
 On Thursday, Gervin posted an image of a Facebook message that appears to be from state Sen. Stacey Campfield that read: “So do YOU have any comments now ;)” 
 
 The message from Campfield — whom The Pulse had a contentious relationship with — stood in stark contrast to reactions from the rest of the community, Gervin said. 
 
 Since the announcement, we have been overwhelmed with the amount of love and support we’ve received from the community, via social media, email, phone calls, and even a very large bar tab donated to us last night by a mix of friends and complete strangers. So to receive such a tacky, cruel Facebook message from Campfield this afternoon – especially since we have never communicated on Facebook and he had previously blocked me on the site – was especially distressing. 
 
 When reached by phone, Campfield declined to comment. ||||| These crawls are part of an effort to archive pages as they are created and archive the pages that they refer to.

 A lame-duck Republican state senator in Tennessee took to the social medium Twitter to taunt a recently laid-off journalist on Thursday. 
 
 According to Huffington Post, Cari Gervin and her coworkers at Knoxville’s alt-weekly paper Metro Pulse were laid off earlier this week due to downsizing by the Pulse’s parent paper, the Knoxville News-Sentinel. 
 
 When he heard the news, state Sen. Campfield — who has a history of controversial statements — tweeted at Gervin, “So, do YOU have any comments now?” with a winking emoticon. 
 
 Gervin has a history of reporting on Campfield’s antics for the press. In the past, he has sent her a stream of “really mean, harassing text messages,” she said, but for him to mock her for losing her means of making a living is “tacky and classless.” 
 
 Campfield notoriously compared the website where consumers can sign up for Obamacare to the trains that carried prisoners to the Nazi death camps of World War II. 
 
 The Tea Party favorite was the lawmaker who sponsored a bill to prohibit teachers in Tennessee’s public schools from discussing anything other than heterosexual relationships in the state’s sex ed curriculum. 
 
 He has compared same-sex relationships to bestiality and told LGBT activist Michelangelo Signorille that HIV/AIDS came from “one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men. It was an airline pilot, if I recall.” 
 
 The state senator was beaten in the Republican primary earlier this year by cardiac surgeon Richard Briggs and is currently facing a defamation lawsuit by a candidate he ran against in 2008. 
 
 Gervin and her coworkers are still reeling, she said, from losing their positions. 
 
 “All of us lost our jobs, and some of them — I’ve been there for four years, but one of my colleagues has been there for 19 years,” she said. 
 
 “We are all just devastated at the loss of our paper and what that means for the community with one less reporting outlet in town,” Gervin said to Huffington Post. “And for some politician to be a jerk about it is just, it’s typical Stacey, but it doesn’t make it any less ridiculous.” ||||| State Sen.

 Tennessee state Sen. Stacey Campfield (R) mocked a local journalist after that reporter was laid off from her job this week. 
 
 Cari Gervin and her colleagues at Knoxville's alt-weekly paper Metro Pulse were let go this week as part of a round of layoffs by the paper's owner, the Knoxville News Sentinel. After tweeting about the layoffs, Gervin posted a screenshot of a Facebook message she received from Campfield:

 Gervin told The Huffington Post that Campfield has sent her "a lot of really mean, harassing text messages" before. But she said his message about her layoff was "tacky and classless." 
 
 "All of us lost our jobs, and some of them -- I've been there for four years, but one of my colleagues has been there for 19 years," Gervin said. 
 
 "We are all just devastated at the loss of our paper and what that means for the community with one less reporting outlet in town. And for some politician to be a jerk about it is just, it's typical Stacey, but it doesn't make it any less ridiculous," Gervin said. 
 
 Gervin said she has never contacted Campfield over Facebook, noting that he blocked her from seeing his page after she reported on a blog post in which he compared Obamacare sign-ups to Nazi death trains. 
 
 Campfield, who declined to comment to HuffPost about Gervin, lost his re-election bid when he was defeated by cardiac surgeon Richard Briggs in the GOP primary race in August. Gervin, who is now looking for another journalism job, said she hasn't reported on Campfield since he was defeated. 
 
 UPDATE: Oct. 17, 11:06 a.m. -- Though Campfield declined to give a comment to The Huffington Post about his message to Gervin, he did take to Facebook to comment on the incident, accusing Gervin of lying and saying, "If you can't take, don't dish." 
 
 See screenshots of some of Campfield's Facebook comments below:
– It's not like outgoing Tennessee state Sen. Stacey Campfield, most recently in the news for standing by his Nazi-ObamaCare analogy, is known for his tact. But a taunting, personal message he sent to a newly laid-off reporter via Facebook is making headlines nonetheless. "So, do YOU have any comments now?" Campfield wrote to Cari Wade Gervin, who had just lost her job along with the rest of the staff at the Knoxville alt-weekly Metro Pulse. "Tacky and classless," is how Gervin described it to the Huffington Post after news of the dig began circulating. "Typical Stacey, but it doesn't make it any less ridiculous." Campfield, who first rose to the national spotlight with his "don't-say-gay" initiative for schools, initially declined comment but has since posted some Facebook comments of the if-you-can't-take-it-don't-dish-it-out variety. “Do I care about someone who lost their job lying about me? No,” he tells Reuters. Gervin has covered Campfield the last few years, and the two have had what Poynter calls a "contentious" relationship. The state senator will be out of a job himself soon, having lost the Republican primary in August. He also faces a defamation suit from a previous political rival, notes Raw Story.
