“I know it sounds dramatic, but the gap between what’s actually happening in Washington and how it’s framed and reported has become so widespread,” he continued. “This new publication, Telos, is my modest attempt to make things better.”
Liza proposed in Politico that “the wrong people are in charge,” and her former employer denounced Trump’s grove.
“We’ve seen a lot of attention how easy it was for media conglomerates to grow up before the Trump administration when the wrong people were in charge,” Liza wrote.
“After Trump attacked Politico for selling a subscription to the federal government, Politico made a disappointing mistake,” he continued. “To make things smooth, they have made our White House reporters a guest on the stage at CPAC, a media sewer and cheerleading sewer, in other words, coupons, because of the degradation of our democracy, where some activists have publicly organized Trump’s unconstitutional third term.”

“I hope that Coolerhead wins here. I hope that Politico friends will carefully consider whether they want to censor journalists,” he writes.
Politico did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Nuzzi claims that she had never had a physical relationship with Kennedy, the subject of her previous report, but she engaged in “personal” communication. She left the New York magazine after investigating her reporting that there was “no evidence of inaccuracy or bias.”
Kennedy’s representative has long denied all sorts of physical relationships, and he said he had only met Nutzi once. Liza vehemently denied Nutzi’s harassment and threatening claims, and threatened her before she dropped them.
