When I was a teacher in East Asia, my students were very supportive of me celebrating American holidays, though they told me mashed potatoes were “baby food.”
Wrote this up on a comment thread at FB and decided to bring it over here too. Happy US Thanksgiving— or, as some of my Canadian friends call it, Yanksgiving, which is even more appropriate than they intend because it really is a Yankee holiday.
Weirdest day to be an American emigrant or expat.

He’s just as bad for sitting on this and allowing everything to happen and then asking for $10 each time he reveals a little more about what he covered up.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills because Lizza is casually admitting to being complicit in malpractice and very possibly literal crimes on his blog

The clandestine operation is a bit much but manipulating whistleblowers in service of their bosses is a common practice.

Good thing Nuzzi is being held accountable by.... getting a slavering profile in the NYT, a glam Malibu photo shoot and a prize magazine job in an otherwise collapsing industry......
Is it possible those things are connected? 🧐

They could both be in on it and splitting the sales
Okay this is not meant as a defense of Nuzzi at all but how did Lizza get all of this info? As reporters working at rival publications I can't imagine this was casual dinner conversation.
She accused him in a court doc of hacking her devices and I actually believe her.

Olivia is right. These allegations also reflect poorly on the partner who helped cover it all up prior to a jilting and subsequent monetized revenge tour. They also reflect terribly on the media outlets who enabled these people.
this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

Contemplating Lizza’s audience. Is it her? Trump? DC “insiders”? The Condé Nast board?

It's real hard to see what value these two brought as journalists that the establishment would bend over backward to keep them. So why then?

Also these are people at the heights of the industry, and both Nuzzi and Lizza were almost instantly rehabilitated by top media companies after a first round of scandals that should have made them radioactive. Now lo and behold, much bigger shoes to drop, and we probably haven't seen the last of it.
The reason that we reporters are focused so intensely on the L'affair Nuzzi is that, as Olivia notes, it is a basically apocalyptic scandal in the most literal sense of that term: a dropping of masks. It's acting as confirmation of every hideous story anybody's ever told about political journalists
