I knew I didn’t fit in when Politico let @benshapiro guest write an edition of Playbook. I told a colleague I was stoked because “this helps legitimize us.” They responded that they were taking a mental health day to process ‘Shapirogate.’
Over the past few years, editors have inserted the words ‘racist’ and ‘discredited’ into my stories about the covid lab leak theory. Colleagues have reported the overturn of Roe without acknowledging many women celebrated that day.
