The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

Bari Weiss is the logical endpoint of corporate media. This is what happens when people who hate journalism are in charge of it. The only way journalism works is when it’s independent from the power it’s supposed to hold to account, which means ownership can’t have anything to do with those in power

“One of the great virtues to have [in Trumpworld] is that you got caught doing bad things and not giving a fuck… That’s the definition of Donald Trump’s career. He’s been caught over and over again. I think they value that greatly.”
I wrote about Benny Johnson, a documented plagiarist who’s become something like MAGA’s content creator in chief: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
How Benny Johnson went from BuzzFeed plagiarist to MAGA's chief content creator
He says he did “some very bad things.” But in Trumpworld, that's a plus.

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:
Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.
