Reporter Olivia Nuzzi on leave from New York magazine over alleged ‘sexting’ relationship w/ RFK Jr.

New York magazine’s Washington correspondent Olivia Nuzzi was placed on leave after she had an alleged romantic relationship with former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. while covering his campaign.

Nuzzi, without naming the 70-year-old Kennedy scion, admitted in a Thursday night statement that earlier this year, “the nature of some communications between myself and a former reporting subject turned personal.”

The 31-year-old star political reporter insisted the relationship was not physical in nature.

Fast forward a few months, he divorces his wife, marries Nuzzi, they go on a whale-beheading honeymoon...

So, her hit piece didn't work, so she sends some "personal" messages for THIS hit piece.

We're watching the media, and remembering.

[Timewave-Zer]

RFK Jr changing the minds of reporters every day 😂

[outlawbillionairez]

Aren't these adults we're talking about? We're funding genocide, but this is inappropriate behavior?

[judytigay]

Et ti Brute?
Post the Oprah relationship with Weinstein

[pamela]

And this is what you find news worthy.

[anotherlover]

Yep. This smacks of a total hit job. Boring.

[tetelestai]

I was wondering when this Democrat accusation stunt was going to take place

[chappie]

When it’s adults it’s wrong but when Billy boy goes to the special island nothing to see here 😂 I like Kennedy more now

[Beauxtrux]

So, RFK Jr had an inappropriate relationship...well, he IS a Kennedy, after all!

[erroneous]

Sounds like a honey trap. Standard CIA procedure to harm the reputation.

[MedicalMalpracticeLawyerRMarti]

These days all I do is talk to my echo and my echo talks to me.

[MaDmeatloaf]

[gerimonardo]

[keithss]

He is married and she is engaged. Classy

[wolfwalker]

Did the sexting go 2 ways or was it a one way infatuation? If the latter, characterizing it as an affair may constitute defamation of RFK Jr.?

[hb]

Where is the evidence? If there are texts, then show them.

[TheMerFree]

Transparent smearing, very expected. I don’t know about you guys, but this kind of BS no longer makes me flinch.

[jackbooten]

Is this worse than pizza gate, I'm not up on current trends.
