Fun fact: Look closely & you can see a copy of COUNT THE DUST in Jim Jarmusch's 2003 film, COFFEE AND CIGARETTES.
It appears in a few of the scenes where <*checks notes*> characters sit at a table drinking coffee & smoking cigarettes.

Nah, fuck this shit. Keep your work life and your real life as separate as possible. Your coworkers shouldn’t even know your real name, as far as I’m concerned.
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.

I hope that this doesn't just become about "Nuzzi is bad" but fosters a wider recognition that our culture of political journalism that didn't just tolerate her, but promoted and celebrated her even after the allegations were known, is rotten to the core and has been for a long time.
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

Funny seeing AI "artists" try and assert copyright claim over their original prompts. The slop spat out by the lying machine is built entirely on plagiarism but sure the brainfart that went into telling it what to excrete is somehow original and worth protecting.

So Olivia Nuzzi is clearly a piece of shit who can never work in journalism again after this.
And, also, Ryan Lizza is clearly a piece of shit who should never work in journalism again after this either.
We're all agree on that, right?
