    Hilarious, but if the reporter asked this they would find it harder to get invites to events. Which is a problem for journalists. Unless your very well regarded for your journalism, you can’t push powerful people without risking your career.

      That, and the reporter is there to get information, not mess with and judge people. Asking that sort of question is really just an attack. We can leave it to commentators and ourselves for judge people.

        this is limp dick energy. If asking questions is an attack then you’re probably a piece of shit doing bad things.

      boofuckingwoo. Reporters are not supposed to be friends with the people they are writing about.

        True, but if those same people they’re not supposed to be friends with are the ones inviting them to those events/granting them early access…

        In other words: the system is rigged.

          Again - boofuckinghooo. Let the fuckers have no friends in the media. The media owners make journalists spinless advertisement sellers. I have very little respect for the profession at this point.
