What bothers me more than the flagrant (alleged) violations of basic journalistic ethics is that I know this person will almost certainly go on to live a comfortable life and be offered more and more chances to earn far more than most ethical working reporters ever will.
Lizza contends that a Kennedy campaign aide offered Nuzzi a story on the selection of their VP, Nuzzi instead killed the story and ratted out the source to Kennedy https://t.co/lx7e0jLa5i

“Ok we’re one op-ed short before Thanksgiving. What do we have?” “What about this one about how Dems are doomed next year because the DNC is ending remote work for their employees?” “What?” “Yeah” “That makes absolutely no sen—“ “I know” “Fuck it, I don’t even care anymore”

She paid a price!?! She was hired by Vanity Fair a year after this allegedly blow up your career sin. GMAFB
She committed a cardinal blow-up-your-career sin and was summarily fired for it.That’s the price and she paid it. What’s left is the titanic sexual shaming of a woman, Monica Lewinsky-style. No one’s going to be proud of this coverage in 20 years.

If the allegations Ryan Lizza makes against Olivia Nuzzi here are true, particularly betraying campaign sources to RFK, this is a worse journalism scandal than Jayson Blair or Stephen Glass.

Lizza also writes that Nuzzi burned/ratted out a source who came to her with a tip about RFK Jr’s selection of Nicole Shanahan as his running mate

The Republican Party spend untold resources elevating the Democrats' most radical members. Then Trump decided to go after these six instead. @nicholaswu12 @lisakashinsky @sambbenson

The administration’s attacks have elevated the six moderate lawmakers who cut an anti-Trump video urging troops to disobey illegal orders.

My family and I are praying for the members of the National Guard who were shot in DC today, and we’re keeping their loved ones in our thoughts and prayers.

Wasn't this settled at Nuremberg? There's a difference between disagreeing with orders and straight-up breaking the law, committing war crimes.
The notion that troops can/must disobey illegal orders is both true and important, but it is also pretty easy to see how that can quickly devolve into chaos if every troop is encouraged to decide for themselves if an order is legal or not.

A reminder of Pete Buttigieg's 2028 Achilles Heel, all these Democratic Governors he'll be going up against have actual experience with Black constituents https://t.co/LdJAMqNR4A
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and supporters of the CROWN ACT gathered in Philadelphia to sign the bill into law on Tuesday. The law is designed to prevent hair discrimination in the workplace, schools, and places of business in Pennsylvania. https://t.co/e1J7ksfm9k

Biggest shock for me in this entire story is seeing how many journalists are like "what's the big deal?", while most of the online public is (justifiably) up in arms about it. Don't think a leading political reporter is comparable to a 22-year-old intern, but whatever.

There is nothing better than looking at the responses to this tweet and watching people demand of @AlexThomp "now do Biden."
NYT: in 2017, Trump’s scheduled events started at 10:31 a.m. on average. In 2025, Trump has started scheduled events in the afternoon on average, at 12:08 p.m. The number of Trump’s total official appearances has decreased by 39 %. In 2017, Trump held 1,688 official events

Lmao. This is now a Blue No Matter Who family in suburban Philadelphia. The Mom has a “hate has no home here” sign in the window and the dad loves Josh Shapiro for fixing that highway.
The core underlying belief at the heart of all left wing political thought today is that this image is evil

It is bad when anyone does this, and obsession with identity doesn't actually help anyone win elections.
As If white folks don't do this to their own folks. Why don't you just mind the business that pays you and don't worry about who "Stans" for who. That's the best possible thing your ass can do!!

Sure, Newsom was like DeSantis against Biden. However, primary voters want to see a fight, not someone accommodating the president they loathe, especially when it’s not because they necessarily agree but become he’s deemed to powerful to fight in their state.
