Olivia Nuzzi on the Myth of Media Objectivity




The Federalist Radio Hour show

Summary: Olivia Nuzzi joins the Federalist Radio Hour to discuss “the beast that the media created,” namely Donald Trump. More than anything else, the journalist says shes surprised that the GOP front runner “seems just like just another guy from Queens.” An engaging reporter with an active social media presence, the Daily Beast writer says she works to provide entertaining coverage. Critiquing the current news-cycle, Nuzzi rejects press objectivity “as a myth.” Instead she says that reporters “should strive to be fair.” Building a philosophy for the campaign trail on this principle, Nuzzi says she has started “hating everyone equally.”
