Our actions will speak for themselves before God, before men they need one hell of a media propaganda apparatus to defend them
God this is so depressing given the political response to it

the takeaway is that the entire media was so delighted at a lie by a serial fabulist who fucked her way through all of her sources and editors to get where she was that they ignored anything even vaguely revealing a public responsibility
i'm just hung up on "the entire media let itself get dogwalked into stabbing Democracy to death by a lady who was just doing it because she was hung up on RFK Jr.'s piss and breeding kinks", it's genuinely unbelievable to me
if she were an actual agent of an enemy polity i think i'd hate it less

The thing I will not get over is that Nuzzi's goal was making RFK Jr. the president.
Trump was a fucking unintended consequence.
There is a world where we could, with some precise statistics, figure out how much Nuzzi's article hurt Biden. We might even be able to do it with favorability ratings.

I think the only mistake here is pretending the media was snowjobbed rather than Nuzzi's star being a symptom of the media's venality and willingness to invent narratives at the most minor of excuses.
Nuzzi isn't even anything new, just perhaps one of the most shameless about it.

This is a subtweet. Many progressives desperately want people to be miserable about the economy for [longstanding progressive critiques], so they're equally desperate to find ways to argue that the public's sudden, inexplicable economic negativity represents the public somehow waking up to reality.
