A software engineer who was suspended by Netflix after she criticized Dave Chappelle’s standup special for what she claimed were anti-transgender jokes in a viral tweet and then attended a quarterly meeting meant for higher-ups said she has been reinstated.

Netflix confirmed Field's reinstatement to Fox Business and reiterated that she was not suspended for tweeting but rather for attending the meeting meant for directors and vice presidents.
