Right, okay, point out the "personal relationship" between Joe Biden and Joe Scarborough but ignore the "personal relationship" between Donald Trump and Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk, etc... if you're interested in journalistic integrity, have the integrity to call out ALL instances of conflict of interest, not just the ones that you feel further your agenda

[@garfieldGG]

The problem is that Nuzzi didn’t disclose her relationship with Kennedy, so everyone thought she was doing unbiased journalism. Ana used Biden/Morning Joe example because it’s democrats who are mad at the Nuzzi/RFK COI.

Doesn't she realize this is wrong? she at first tried to deny this, lie about this to her bosses.

[@uncomfortabletruth5915]

That scandal against Weiner, was basically to protect the exploitative banking sector he was attempting to indict. And after he was gone, none dared to prosecute the financial elites..

[@BLKShadow]

Ana, you have forgotten your past comments regarding RFK, Jr. You previously hyped and gushed over his body and how sexy you believed him to be for his age. Now this guy can't escape your wrath. Cenk disliking someone after liking that person means nothing. Cenk has continued to show his true self by first bashing Kamala Harris for years and now promoting her for president no matter what he previously stated.

[@PoochieCollins]

^ Lying. I tried GGLing for Kasparian talking about RFKJ's body and no such utterances by her came up. And the show, including Cenk, have been critical of Kamala at least a few instances since she's been the presumptive Dem nominee as well.

@@BLKShadow I'm even more sure that your first claim is a lie, since you can't even tell me the title of the article or video she allegedly said this. And your ad hominem doesn't change the latter part of my OP from being true. I've been following TYT pretty closely for the last few months; their criticism of Kamala has been enough that many liberal long-time followers here have complained about it.

This story is admittedly mostly titillation. So what. Nuzzi's interest in Jr. is pathetic. He is unwell and the proof is endless. Likewise, Jr. could easily have cutoff the interaction. No doubt he loved the attention, as he is an attention seeker. The bigger picture? Journalists who are star-effers and washed up stars who crave the spotlight regardless of the reason. Life in the good ole USA.

[@thomasharding5375]

Perfect summation Cenk. I heard Krystal Ball say in a tone that was contemptuous of Nuzzi's finding Kennedy attractive that she was 'perplexed" by it. Sounding like a teenager, she was mostly perplexed by the fact that Nuzzi could be attracted to someone who was so old! (It reminded me of being at Taliesin and hearing the response of a 14-year-old when the docent stated that Frank Lloyd Wright's wife, Olgivanna, was 30 years younger than he -- "yuck!") You are right on every point here, Cenk: "People are human, she found him attractive [without having first consulted with anyone as to whether or not she should suppress her pheromonal attraction because someone might be "perplexed" by her being attracted to an old guy] that's her business. But throwing her under the bus is bad form;" or as Anna said, emphatically, super gross!" Whom we are physically attracted to is beyond our control (with even the inexplicable possibility of a thirty-year-old man perplexingly being attracted to sixty-year-old Susan Sarandon! Someone young liking someone "old' -- unthinkable.), so much so that it can result in having passionate feelings for individuals who are reprehensible, as is the case of Nuzzi being attracted to Kennedy. Not having been able to suppress her affection is altogether forgivable.

[@kiroolioneaver8532]

There's also people who have daddy/mommy issues and so some young people end up looking for surrogate parents (either coinciously or not) in their romantic relationships.

“Not having been able to suppress her affection is altogether forgivable.” NO. Not when she’s a journalist.
