In March 2016 Welker was busted on live television tipping off Hillary Clinton’s Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri about at least one question she planned to ask her during a post-debate interview in Michigan.

NYU has canceled the class "Reporting on the Far Right" originally going to be taught by Talia Lavin after only two students signed up

Lavin resigned from the New Yorker last year after falsely accusing a disabled ICE agent of having a Nazi tattoo

thewrap.com/nyu-cancels-fo…
Lavin's faculty bio has been scrubbed from the NYU website

Am told by @Penenberg that the decision to cancel had nothing to do with Lavin's past issues or other writings but was only a result of low enrollment

The Boston Globe has unpublished an opinion piece which suggested restaurants servers "tamper" with the food of Trump officials

"it did not receive sufficient editorial oversight and did not meet Globe standards. The Globe regrets its lack of vigilance"

NYU has hired Talia Lavin to teach an undergraduate course called "Reporting on the Far Right"

Lavin resigned from the New Yorker last year after falsely accusing a disabled war veteran of having a Nazi tattoo

thewrap.com/nyu-journalism…
Lavin's faculty bio at NYU makes no mention of her time at the New Yorker

journalism.nyu.edu/about-us/profi…
Just weeks after leaving the New Yorker, Lavin was hired by Media Matters to work as a researcher on "far-right extremism" — and though she continues to represent herself as employed there on LinkedIn, I'm told she left the organization months ago.
