Also men are so gross. All it takes is a few messages from a mid blonde.

I don't think it's the quantity of affairs, as much as the way she used the affairs to advance her career with really gross men.
Ryan Lizza said Keith Olbermann paid for her college and everything, so I think that's a case of advancing her career (or lifestyle) with a gross old man. But by 2019, when she's already established and had ins with the Trump administration? At that point, she's doing it for the love of the game, baby.
Katy Tur was another minx shacking up with old man Olbermann. But now we're supposed to take Tur seriously as a super serious NBC political reporter. Same for Alexi McCammond, who was screwing around with male superiors or whatever and some White House official. Ethics in this industry? Disgusting status- and fame-obsessed strivers all-around.

Here's the original reveal from her ex, Ryan Lizza: https://www.telos.news/p/part-1-how-i-found-out
Lol. Ryan is a messy b-tch for this and he definitely hasn't moved on.
I enjoyed reading Ryan’s piece, it’s always helpful to get the other side of the story. But this guy doesn’t get a pass from me. Nuzzi was messy af. But Lizza and Nuzzi were both clout-chasers who mutually benefited from each other’s looks, position, and access. Lizza unfortunately miscalculated that Olivia would try to level up eventually; something that was obvious to anybody who knew about the Olberman history. Nuzzi was (is) a creature for whom lifeblood is attention and death is irrelevance. Each jump to next rock was a more powerful guy, no matter how gross. This makes sense when you realize that the guy isn’t a guy, he’s a path to survival. Nuzzi’s writing skills are always presented as some sort of defense of her actions; as if being skilled at something, anything, somehow reorients the moral framework around which choices should be made. She’s a good writer. She also decided rules of journalism didn’t apply to her. That’s a problem. She’s odd person to lionize until you realize that the media folks writing about her in the press, defending her on X, and giving her book deals are men. It sounds too simple and dumb to be an explanation, but everyone still scratches their heads about how Elizabeth Holmes scammed investors out of millions of dollars.
No matter how compelling Lizza’s version of of events is, or how true, his piece reads as no more or less interesting than the story of any other guy smarting from losing the girl at the end of the movie. Juxtaposing his history with Nuzzi with the inclusion of his over the top love for his latest girlfriend is like that guy you go out on a date with who can’t stop talking about his ex: “you’re so beautiful! Also my ex was such a B, lemme tell you more about her”.
Being betrayed absolutely sucks and I’ve been there. But all of these people suffer from main character syndrome. There’s nothing extraordinary about a middle-aged guy’s 20-something girlfriend figuring out that there was a quicker elevator to the penthouse. Lizza is human, and deserving of empathy. But he ain’t special. My college roommate got dumped for an AP, and we got drunk, stalked her SM, then got up the next day and moved on with our lives. These folks should do the same.
Admittedly I didn't read all of this, but if you agree that Ryan Lizza is a nasty, greedy little b-tch for trying to turn his ex-girlfriend's saga into a come-up for himself while pretending to be above it all, then we agree.

Oh yes, we concur. I loved the part where he describes her angling for a wedding while he politely demures. Nothing says “I never wanted her” like a long-form article spilling all the deets a full year later.
YES. That part was a complete own goal on his part. Nothing says duplicitous snake like posing as the blindsided innocent victimized by a man-eating bimbo while admitting you led her on with no intention of marrying her. She was supposed to stay loyal to a man who was knowingly wasting what he knew she considered her prime marriageable years?
And the money-hungry, deeply envious way he catalogs the items she received from Olbermann is creepy as hell. He sounds a lot like an envious female competitor -- as if his real cause of his anger is that he isn't a woman who has the looks and game to attract financial and career support from successful older men.

The men she’s after aren’t attractive either. It’s a mid off.
Haha. Exactly.
Does she have daddy issues? Probably not, just likes them desperate. But they are all significantly older. Blech.

You wish someone famous cared about your online rantings. I'm the poster who thinks Olivia Nuzzi owes zero apologies. I don't need to be Olivia Nuzzi to applaud her for not letting herself be another ran-through 30-something with nothing to show for the older men who exploited her. If someone's depraved vampire of a husband goes around exploiting young women, he deserves to get taken for everything he has. I hope her next book is a tell-all about the Hollywood limp d!ck adulterers she has known biblically. They deserve to be shamed and mocked.
