This industry is such a cesspit

He enjoyed it for a decade: signing another deal in "the mid six figures" to write a revised book on 2008 that also went unwritten, appearing on Charlie Rose in 2011, and, in 2017, reporting for The New Yorker a profanity-laced phone call that immortalized Anthony Scaramucci - and got him fired as Trump's communications director 10 days after he took the job. Scaramucci thought the call was off the record. Lizza ran the story. His star was at its peak. (Scaramucci, who later described Lizza as "f---ing dead to me," declined to comment on Lizza's current situation.)
Five months later, however, The New Yorker fired him. At the height of the Me Too movement, a woman with whom he had a previous relationship accused him of sexual misconduct, which he denied. Thrown from a great height, he was offered a lifeline by Jay Fielden, then editor of Esquire. He had to meet with Hearst executives to assuage them first. He brought his new girlfriend-Olivia Nuzzi, at 25, 19 years his junior-to one meeting. She offered the air cover of a supportive politician's wife.

The audacity of this lady

Sometimes Nuzzi gave her critics ammunition. In 2018 she let herself into the D.C. home of Corey Lewandowski, Trump's former campaign manager, an act he reasonably described as trespassing.
And in April this year she was thrown out of Manhattan Criminal Courthouse during Trump's hush money trial for twice taking pictures, then wrote her report as if she hadn't been removed.|
But most of the time she simply did her job, which those enraged by her disliked even more. "Anyone that young and successful," says a veteran reporter, "people line up to hate them."
