I'd recommend Posting Through It's episode on Matt Taibbi with @eoinhiggins.bsky.social, which does a good job laying out what a creep he's become podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/0...

He died in 2021. This remains one of the biggest regrets of my career: Could I have done something else? Did I not push hard enough? What did he want to tell me? Was it anything important?

And now I’ll never know.

I tried him at his office later (masking my number) and got him on the phone, but it was over. He was spooked. His wife and lawyer had made clear this was a bad idea for him. We never talked. 4/

So I called, as requested — and his wife answered. She’d gotten wind of the plan and clearly understood that talking about a patient, particularly that patient, was not a good idea. The meeting was off. As I remember it, she hung up on me. No one picked up again. 3/

I called his office in the city and he was clearly conflicted but agreed to meet. I told him I’d meet him right then, but he wanted me to call him later and we could get coffee. I pushed hard, but no dice. 2/
