Unhinged to describe the criticism of her journalistic ethics as a "freaksome lynching" when she has not denied any of the allegations and admits to most of them in her book.
Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

Man, the Orioles front office is either really stupid (possible!) or they feel very confident that Grayson’s arm is never going to be the same.
For his sake, I hope it’s the former.

Not sure it "upended her career" considering she got a book deal and a job with Vanity Fair
Olivia Nuzzi's memoir is a combustive portrait of America, President Trump and the scandal with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that upended her career.
In an exclusive interview with The New York Times, she recalls the infatuation that consumed her, Kennedy’s use of psychedelics and much more.

I think limiting the definition of “political violence” to mean “bodily harm from a single assailant” helps downplay the many ways in which governments brutalize people.
Is starving children not political violence? Is forcing a woman to carry a high-risk pregnancy to term not political violence?
