I’d be more sympathetic to “Nuzzi and Lizza are uniquely bad and not at all representative of political reporters in general” if political reporters haven’t spent the past 10 years torching their own credibility all the way back to the full court press on Hillary’s emails.

Sure, Nuzzi isn’t all journalists. Sure, Larry Summers isn’t all academics. Sure, Musk isn’t all CEOs. And also, if you don’t think their prominence & behavior tells us something about those professions & our National Conversation™️ in this authoritarian era, I don’t really know what to tell you.

Dear foreign nationals in war-torn countries, terrorism hot-spots, and amidst our enemies:
If you help the United States, we’ll fuck you over and abandon you. Not the individual servicepeople or intelligence officers — they’ll fight for you. I mean the depraved, soulless leadership of the nation.

So now they’re going to be doing individualized re-review of tens of thousands of Afghan evacuees’ cases on TOP of the re-review of 200,000+ refugees who entered under Biden?

Sleeping with a source is, yes, an ethical violation because it creates the *appearance* of bias.
Acting as their political fixer and campaign adviser, using your journalistic network to do so, is *factual* harm and a betrayal of the highest order--especially when you do it for Eugenics McGee.

Both can be true. I think there's something exquisitely twisted about the pair of them, and we're all in on some particularly depraved kink here.
But also, *if* (big if) the substantive allegations are true, this is a massive indictment of the profession, I'm afraid.

and again i really can't stress enough that Nuzzi was MASSIVELY influential within the media, we were all there, it was not THAT long ago, her article Bravely and Boldly talking about Biden Old was the thing that got everyone talking about Biden Old
The behaviour of both of these people also raises questions about the outlets that raised them up and continue to give them opportunities. That just seems obvious to me.
Their personalities may be worthy of lab study, yes, but it doesn't change the big picture.

a side note: you can learn *a lot* about British journalism when you realize that Boris Johnson was fired from his first job in it for serial dishonesty, and then promptly hired into a new job, where he continued to make up lies.
Not to pat my profession on the back, for all of our problems, but I do think it's to the law's credit that every US bar association that reviewed Glass' application for a license went "fuuuuuuuuuuuck no."

I dunno personally I'm probably not going to trust many people in the media's assertions that this isn't a commentary on journalism or the state of media considering how half of media promoted/hired/wrote positively about Nuzzi, while a good number of journalists closed ranks around her.

I think plenty of it speaks to the state of the media, but an obvious one is that Vox and Vanity Fair barely investigated her and that she managed to commit an unforgivable journalistic crime before getting a book deal and walking into another prestige job, while plenty of others are being laid off
