NYMag Writer in RFK Jr Affair Has a Strange Public History of Her Own, Has Supported Trump All Along

Share

There are a lot of people who will be writing stories about Olivia Nuzzi this week. The busted New York Magazine writer is on leave after it was discovered she’s been having an affair with former wanna be presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr.

Kennedy is married to actress Cheryl Hines, his third wife. Nuzzi has been engaged for a while (maybe not any more) to former New Yorker magazine writer Ryan Lizza. He was fired in 2017 during the #MeToo scandals over sexual malfeasance at the austere publication.

After the New Yorker incident, Lizza and Nuzzi were hired to write a book about Biden and Trump. The book never materialized and by 2021 their contract was cancelled.

Nuzzi and Lizza must have been quite the couple.

Ever since Nuzzi interviewed Kennedy for the November 22, 2023 cover of New York magazine she started supporting him and Donald Trump on Twitter X. There are endless posts touting them.

Her best Tweet, though, came back in 2015 in response to a story about the TV show “House of Cards.” Posted over a picture of actress Kate Mara from that show, Nuzzi wrote: “Why does Hollywood think female reporters sleep with their sources?”
