From the non-paywalled section of the article that the taibbi subscribers itt are afraid to post:

quote:

This was the context under which I met Musk and the circle of adjutants who would become the go-betweens delivering the material that came to be known as the Twitter Files. I would have accepted such an invitation from Hannibal Lecter, but I actually liked Musk. His distaste for the blue-check thought police who’d spent more than a half-year working themselves into hysterics at the thought of him buying Twitter — which had become the private playground of entitled mainstream journalists — appeared rooted in more than just personal animus. He talked about wanting to restore transparency, but also seemed to think his purchase was funny, which I also did (spending $44 billion with a laugh as even a partial motive was hard not to admire).

Normally when someone comes to you with a story you ask what it is they want or expect out of press coverage, both so you can understand their motives and to avoid misunderstandings later on. I asked the question, but I can’t say I ever fully understood the answer. It didn’t matter.

Personally, I like Hannibal Lecter.

Twitter is also moving forward with their plan from last year to raise revenue by being a payment processor and having people link their bank accounts to their Twitter profile.

Another idea that will surely not have any downside.

Also Florida is not a place you can dig into.

Like, you know when it rains; And the water becomes a stream on the street near the side walk, and then inside of a crack, a leaf gets stuck, which allows a bunch of other leaves and dirt to collect in that spot? But it's really easy to poke it with a broom, and it all flows away.


That's what Florida is. A place where a bunch stuff from the ocean got stuck.

Normally I’d ask why a billionaire would want me to run a certain story. I asked and never really got an answer so I just did what they wanted me to do anyway without any critical thought
