[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to review: the NYT is trash, not to be trusted. But Perez Hilton and the Daily Mail are infallible.

Go JB! xoxo[/quote]

Well let’s take inventory. The NYT ran the Baldoni hit piece with the sham subpoena as cover. The Daily Mail did actual investigative journalism exposing the sham subpoena. The NYT still hasn’t reported on the sham subpoena and probably won’t. The Daily Fail may be a tabloid, but even a broke clock is right twice a day. [/quote]

And to prove how fake this was from the get-go and how it's standard operating procedure at [i]The Times[/i], that hack Megan Twohey is not only not fired, she'll be promoted and/or rewarded with a windfall from Hollywood for being a good foot soldier.

It's also worth noting Twohey is from Washington and is a GU alum. It's not out of the question she is on her personally spinning.[/quote]

No. She will be mocked and judged by other NYT reporters for messing this stupid non-story up and being blinded into thinking she’s a celebrity insider and friends/confidants with the Blakes of the world. [/quote]

Totally agree with you. The pp is being nuts. The journalist will be disgraced. I feel bad for her. She was duped [/quote]

Disgraced? Y'all are naive as hell. Is Jake Tapper disgraced running point for senile Biden? He’s still paid millions a year, still an CNN star, and was just given a multi-million book deal detailing he knew all along Biden was losing his mind (in contrast to his actual coverage on CNN!).

Twohey has not and will not be fired. She will become a multi-millionaire, if she isn’t already, off a career peddling bullshit.[/quote]

You clearly don’t understand this world. It’s fine. I’m not saying she’ll be fired but she will be put on ice and this will be a major hit to her credibility. She’s not going to become a ‘multi millionaire’ off this. I don’t think you understand News or journalism at all. [/quote]

+1 that some PPs do not understand this world. Becoming a fake entertainer journalist like Tapper or any of the other CNN etc types could bring her millions, sure. And if that’s her goal, it could happen. But she will never be a respected reporter again and yes, among a certain set, that is something that money can’t buy. Becoming a respected investigative reporter at the NYT, New Yorker, maybe ProPublica - you’ll notice i’m not listing cable news anchor positions here - is all about reputation and the quality of the work, and it is something that Tapper and his ilk can’t buy. Maybe they don’t want it anyway, but among people who do want it or care about these things, it is very hard to achieve. Of course it is gatekeeping, but I’m telling you how it works. Blowing it on Blake Lively was a total waste and disappointing. She can’t get that reputation prestige back. And it reflects poorly on NYT editors and leadership for allowing it to happen, at a time when the paper was already diminished. She has colleagues who are furious about this, I assure you, because the NYT brand erosion also undermines them. [/quote]

Jake tapper was an anchor for years. Megan is a long time journalist and 50 yo. She’s not suddenly going to pivot to a multi million dollar anchor job and book deals- she’s too old, that’s not really her skill set and you don’t just get handed book huge book deals after a failed piece that will likely cause her employer boat loads of money in legal fees. She got her book deal after Weinstein and I doubt there are any more coming.

Blake has essentially ruined Megan’s career. I still can’t quite figure out what she, her editors and others at NYT let this piece go through. It was essentially a single source piece (sure, w the cover of the filing) with *multiple* potential defamation plaintiffs, and they gave the subjects less than 24 hours to respond. Daily Mail would have gone for comment earlier imo. Why didn’t the times? It’s unfathomable to me. [/quote]

What in the hell kind of disinformation gaslighting is this? Nepo baby Twohey has already cashed in and become a Hollywood foot soldier:

“Twohey and Kantor authored a book which chronicled their exposé into Weinstein and the structures of power that enabled him, titled She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story that Helped Ignite a Movement, which was published by Penguin Books in September 2019.[33] In 2022, the book was adapted into a film of the same name. The film is directed by Maria Schrader from a screenplay by Rebecca Lenkiewicz. Twohey is played by Carey Mulligan.”[/quote]

Yes, as I said she got her book deal from Weinstein but that’s probably the end for her. And I think you a little confused about just how much book deals make in this day and age, including adaptation rights. I’m sure she made a decent amount and I’m sure you’ll find some extreme example of someone making $$$, but the fact is it’s rare to become super wealthy if you’re an investigative journalist.

Her dad was a journalist in Chicago. I can’t remember what her mom did. But she’s hardly a nepo baby. She worked for what she became.

You seem to have great personal animosity for her. It’s a bit odd. [/quote]

Unless you’re her or her accountant, you have zero clue what she made or what kind of favor for a favor shit is going on behind closed doors. It’s clear by your deluded know it all tone you’re the crazy Lively spammer. Good God you are batshit.[/quote]

Lively spammer? Huh? I’m usually accused of being pro Baldoni.

And yes, I do know this world. I’ve worked in news and publishing. I have writer and journalist friends and colleagues who get book deals, options, Netflix deals etc. Your assumption that Megan is going to pivot and somehow make millions off this is as you say ‘bat shit’ [/quote]

Twohey isn’t some above it all low key straight news reporter, she has ALREADY cashed in with a book and movie deal. Twohey has magazine covers and walks the red carpet. Do you think Blake threw a dart and found her or is there agency links between her, Ryan and Ari? She’s a reliable foot soldier. You’re spinning for her and spamming make believe nonsense masquerading as an expert insider on a mommy forum on a Sunday afternoon. You’re not an insider, you’re a lonely spinster or some PR bot trying to muddy the water. A futile effort, I might add.
