“one (1) journalism”

You just typed what I’ve been thinking about this better than I could ever hope to. Great comment. You’re 10,000% right. This desire to smear Ronan Farrow on this site, which I usually like a lot, is just weird. I mean, if that guy isn’t good enough, who is?

Ronan Farrow’s One (1) Journalism:

You and this writer pretend this is the only piece of investigative journalism this man has ever done. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. He has done lots of investigative journalism and even written a book based on investigative journalism. This piece is uninformed and you are also uninformed.

You are not giving this man enough credit. He is fucking brilliant and dogged and a good investigative journalist. He freaking finished college at fifteen! He’s also a lawyer and a former governmental advisor who has done some absolutely amazing things. He has written many essays carried in many prestigious papers and…

Thank you. I can’t believe the goddamned sneering at Ronan Farrow, here and yesterday at Jezebel, slamming his life and work because “privilege”. The dude is tremendously accomplished, actually experienced in journalism (besides working for humanitarian causes like women and children in war torn countries and against…

Maybe you’ll get a show too if you did (1) journalism and not bitching about others on a website.

Yeah and fuck him for using his influence to try and go up against one of the largest media companies in the world in NBC that tried to stop this story, and then publishing it anyway when NBC wouldn’t in a different publication. He deserves nothing!

Fun fact: this post and comment are about Ronan Farrow.

lol. Yeah fuck Ronan Farrow. How dare he continue to pursue career opportunities after publishing, arguably one of the most important articles of this century, to the benefit of women who were abused and then silenced by a corrupt monolithic power structure. Fuck off Ronan, you pig, and live the rest of your days upon…

Can I have the cell of your dealer? Because if your take on my post was that I was suggesting Harvey was the one on the right side, I want some of it too.

Seriously. By all means rip HBO, rip the Hollywood Reporter, don’t rip one of the few men who has actually done and said all the right things (since long before #MeToo).

So exactly ONE more than anyone here.

And yet, no big publishing houses will pick up my amnesiac-werewolf-in-a-zombie-apocalypse trilogy. I tell you, the world ain’t fair.

Press her more, and risk being casted out of the prized DC Cocktail Party Circuit? Are you mad?

The admin is the definition of tone deaf, though! Probably sent him because Michigan has a strong vein of Dutch heritage, and I believe that Hoekstra is of Dutch heritage, so this is a sort of favor posting.

Haha! The White House Press Corps has always been complicit. That’s how they get to stay in the room and rub elbows at fancy parties.

THIS. Why aren’t they calling her on that crap?

Have to admit, I felt kinda proud to be Dutch here.
