I think you're mistaken. He criticized her writing, not her as a person.
And if anyone is qualified to criticized writing it's Stephen King. With all the books he wrote, awards and nominations he got in Fantasy. He wrote about vampires for 40 years, and she wrote few books. Of course he's got shit to say about that.
Even if you don't agree with that, Stephen King has an opinion about that particular piece of writing and he choose his right of free speech to exercised it.
Hell, I'm not an American, but I know how this works.
