      emptywheel actively participated in a law enforcement investigation that she was actively covering, and then hid this fact from readers for many months. Media then took her claimed rationale at face value (as though collaborating with the FBI is normal journalistic activity)

      She also specifically admitted that she TURNED OVER A SOURCE TO THE FBI, proactively and voluntarily. This is supposed to be one of the worst sins of journalism: unforgivable treachery. But her rationale was barely even scrutinized. Instead, she was celebrated. Embarrassing.

          Michael Tracey Retweeted emptywheel

          Here she admits that her collaborative activities were "appreciated" by the Special Counsel's office. I'm sure.https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/1098426284244377601 …

          Michael Tracey added,

          emptywheel @emptywheel
          For the benefit of @mtracey and others: I did not speak with Mueller. I spoke to another part of DOJ/FBI abt something understood to be separate. But I did give a heads up to Mueller's office I was going to write about it; they seemed appreciative I did.

          Here's part of the rationale she gave for her flabbergasting journalistic decision, on July 3, 2018, after concealing her FBI collaboration for many months. It was basically a patriotic thing, you see.pic.twitter.com/hYsOXCtx23

          While she makes this massive "disclosure" on her blog posts, it's not disclosed in her various media appearances where she's promoted as an authority on Mueller. Nor has the fact that she has a *direct, personal stake* in the investigation been adequately scrutinizedpic.twitter.com/O5jvMjqoTa

          It was a very weird situation, which was never fully explained.

          You're just discovering this now? She came out about it on her own, not because she was found out. I get the apprehension, but given her creditable history I'm happy to see where the cards land and then form an opinion. You're coming off as a bit unhinged on this TBH.

          Interesting. I recently researched emptywheel. So left biased. Only playing to audience. Not a journalist
