Any self respecting journalism organization that Olivia Nuzzi is a member of should boot her out asap. Any self respecting writer should refuse to work for Vanity Fair.
None of them will do it, because pieces of shit like Nuzzi always just glides on by.

Perfect example of political media operating under the post-truth standard that (1) distorts the facts until the parties look approximately equal, and (2) holds “do MAGA voters care?” as a higher standard than “is it true?” or “is it important for the public to know about this?”

Every NYTimes editor, reporter, board member, executive, etc -- should have to explain how these sorts of things are allowed to happen.

He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.
