And let’s be clear, Ryan Lizza is the one who got thrown out of the club, Olivia Nuzzi is the one still very much in the club while Lizza is flogging poorly named substack.

I'm seeing a few journalists unload on Ryan Lizza, although not by name, and uh, I have some questions about why this crossed the line and other things didn't or whether we've just got a coordination point for finally unloading on a style of journalism.

When you have kids one day you just start talking like a dad. My kid slept in this morning and I greeted him with, "Glad to see you among the living!"
I've never used that phrase in my life. It just came out.

Just want to reiterate: Lizza and Nuzzi's ethical lapses are not representative of the DC press corps, which includes a ton of tireless public interest reporters who actually care about holding powerful people accountable, including at trade pubs.
They deserve better owners and a better industry.

If the Nuzzi blast radius doesn't impact both the new editor of VF and the NYT profiler, then something wrong. Holy shit.

Nuzzi is like Trump in this sense: the worst thing about America is not that someone that awful exists, the worst thing is that much of the press promotes and normalizes it for clicks.

Anyway, Nuzzi is going to milk this latest set of gross revelations for all it’s worth, parlaying it into more insipid fawning coverage on her I’m-not-sorry-but-this-is-a-redemption-tour gig.
She’s basically a less charming George Santos.

The new Vanity Fair editor sought to make his magazine less woke and some of his first moves were hiring Olivia Nuzzi, publishing an abstract nude of Nuzzi by a person now alleged to have made illegal recordings on her behalf, and putting only men in the Hollywood issue

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

Speaking as a journalist, it has long been clear — and more so all the time — that something is *rotting* in the world of New York and Washington political reporting. Actively, visibly suppurating. Oozing with maggots. Even as many of the people in that world have denied it.

I don't think every or even most journalists are this utterly corrupt. The investigative folks I know have always conducted themselves pretty scrupulously, and I'm currently forced to conclude that's why they haven't hit the big-time

So. Can any of us look at our colleagues in the political press corps of Washington/New York and say, with a straight face, that none of *them* would do this? That none of them would hold important stuff back to their own benefit? Throw sources over to cultivate bigger ones? Fuck a subject?

And of course, if Lizza *isn't* lying, then Nuzzi has broken every concievable ethical rule in journalism: fucking subjects, freelancing PR work, betraying sources, running catch and kill ops, all while pretending to be an objective writer. It is an absolutely jaw dropping level of corruption

And even if his allegations are wrong, Nuzzi *already* stood revealed as one of the most singularly dishonest and ethically compromised people in the industry. This was a known fact, and not only was she rewarded, many of her colleagues rushed to publicly congratulate her hiring to a plum job

I don't know what — or really, if anything — in Lizza's account is true, because I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. If *any* of it is true, the fact that we are only hearing about it now, after the fact, to drive subscriptions to his paywalled private newsletter, is frankly vile!

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

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.
