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)

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

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

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
