First of all, you act as though I am a thirty year old man. When I am, in fact, a teenage girl.
Second, Katherines FIRST interaction with the newsies was being a jerk to them(as well as most of the interaction after that, tbh). She's not kind to them. At all. So you can't convince me that she would have paid for their stuff even if she could. Besides, being a white male had little to do with it. Because newsflash, MOST OF THE NEWSIES ARE WHITE MALES!!
Also, Katherine being a girl automatically makes the show feminist, which is historically inaccurate. (I know that like 95% of newsies is inaccurate, but most of that is to sensationalize it for the stage/screen). So yes, we do "go wild" when a girl is added.
But also, a girl wasn't "added". She simply replaced Sarah. It's like the people writing the play took Sarah and Denton and mushed them into one, and then went "You know what? Lets make this character bad" And then they did it.
I'm not saying you can't like Katherine, but don't get all butt hurt just because I personally don't like her. You can like Katherine, but I can like Denton. It's not that deep. The post was originally just to be silly and put my opinion out there. The way you got all offended is giving Twitter user, ngl...
Can't sleep because I'm thinking about how our man Denton paid for lunch, paid all the legal fees for the newsies, and was just generally an awesome dude... And he did all of that just to get replaced by a sub-par lady reporter who happens to be related to the enemy.

First of all, the way you worded this suggests that you think I'm a thirty year old man with a nasty beard. But I am, in fact, a 15 year old girl. So the word "misogynistic" doesn't apply.
Second, yes. I do dislike the fact that she's a girl. Why? Because it's NOT👏HISTORICALLY👏ACCURATE👏. My brother recently preformed as specs in newsies Jr at the local middle school, and something that really bothered me was how feminist it was(I mean, the script said spot conlon and cruthie were supposed to be girls). The feminism isn't historically accurate. And yes, I realize that there's many things in newsies that aren't, but those are mostly to sensationalize it for the stage. Whereas imagine if you helped in a huge historical movement, and they make a stage production about it... Only to make a character based on you thr opposite gender. I personally would feel as though my grave was being spat on.
Another thing, she hardly even cared about the newsies. She was chasing a way to start her career, and happened to fall in love. But Denton cared about them ALL from the start. I said " sub-par" not because she was bad, but because she didn't have the experience under her belt that Denton did.
And I never said her blood made her evil. I was simply bringing that up just because. This post was just supposed to be my silly way off saying that I think Denton is the GOAT.
You also brought up that Denton paid the stuff because he could, and Katherine couldn't. But you can't convince me that Katherine would have it she could. I mean, the first time we meet her, literally the first interaction she has, she's being a jerk to the newsies.
I'm not saying that it isn't okay to be a Katherine fan, but what I AM saying it that it's also okay to be a Denton fan. And I'm also saying that it's okay to dislike a character just because, and that doesn't make me or anyone else a bad person. Sorry for ranting.
Can't sleep because I'm thinking about how our man Denton paid for lunch, paid all the legal fees for the newsies, and was just generally an awesome dude... And he did all of that just to get replaced by a sub-par lady reporter who happens to be related to the enemy.
