    Nicholas Grossman Retweeted Kilgore Trout

    The controversy surrounding Selena Zito--a reporter who writes about Trump voters and has been credibly accused of inaccuracies--is a sort of microcosm for 2018's big political controversies. Caught in obvious small lies, she doubles down, raising suspicion of bigger lies.https://twitter.com/KT_So_It_Goes/status/1055477878194913280 …

        Best point in this article about Selena Zito is a loaded question for a conservative media that often sanitizes Trump supporters. The public and the elite media clearly want to "better understand the Trump electorate"--so many profiles!--but "whose voice are they really hearing?"

        The way the editors have been behaving is the most damning part of it. It casts suspicion on their entire operation. When all it would take to put it to bed is for an editor to say, "I listened to the audio. The quotes are correct" and nobody will do it, that's bad.

        Replying to @TroublesomeF

        The New York Post--which published Zito's defense of herself in which she insists she never did anything even a little wrong--sort of said that. But not really. And they defensively shut down when others followed up.

        Right. This is super easy to do unambiguously. Like, doing it in a noncommittal, ambiguous way is probably more work. But that's what they're choosing to do. Weird, no?

        It's a red flag, no doubt. Not proof, but raises suspicion.

        I haven't seen enough to think she's a large scale fabricator, but it sure seems like she's been sloppy enough for her editors to want people to stop digging. It's probably the usual "cover up worse than the crime" situation, especially for a reputation driven industry.

        As an academic, can you imagine an adminstration having your back in a similar way for sloppy research? I'm guessing not.

        What's the controversy? She's a liar of the fact-massaging variety (D'Agata), as opposed to the whole-cloth one (Blair, Glass). If she 'reported' for the NYT, she'd have to move to FoxGoebbels (J Miller).

        She's an embarrassment to Pittsburgh. And she just joined "my" Elks lodge, too. Duquesne Uni just had her & James O'Keefe on stage at a 1st Amendment conf https://www.duq.edu/about/1a-conference/agenda … - Sad!
