On Friday, screenwriter and producer Shonda Rhimes took to Twitter to hit back at New York Times critic Alessandra Stanley, who alluded to Rhimes being an "angry black woman."

Stanley refers to Rhimes as an "angry black woman" in her review for the upcoming ABC series "How to Get Away With Murder" -- Rhimes is executive producer.

"When Shonda Rhimes writes her autobiography, it should be called "How to Get Away With Being an Angry Black Woman," Stanley begins her NYT review.

Although Stanley continues her NYT piece with a more positive depiction of Rhimes and even notes that, "[Rhimes ]has done more to reset the image of African-American women on television than anyone since Oprah Winfrey, the critically acclaimed writer/producer still tweeted her disapproving thoughts on Stanley's NYT review.

Rhimes began her Twitter rant by noting Stanley's glaring mistake in which she names Rhimes as the creator of "How to Get Away With Murder." According to E! News, "HTGAWM" was actually created by ShondaLand writer Peter Nowalk.

"Confused why @nytimes critic doesn't know identity of CREATOR of show she's reviewing. @petenowa did u know u were 'an angry black woman'?" Rhimes began her rant on Friday.

She continued, "Apparently we can be 'angry black women' together, because I didn't know I was one either! @petenowa #LearnSomethingNewEveryday."

In addition to Rhimes, Stanley also takes a jab at "HTGAWM" lead actress Viola Davis who she describes as, "older, darker-skinned and less classically beautiful."

Davis has not responded to Stanley's critique.

However, the Tony award winning actress recently spoke with The New York Times about her decision to take on the lead role in the upcoming ABC series "HTGAWM."

"A 25-year-old white actress who is training at Yale or Juilliard or SUNY Purchase or N.Y.U. today can look at a dozen white actresses who are working over age 40 in terrific roles," she explained. " You can't say that for a lot of young black girls. That's why I'm doing what I'm doing."
