Journalist Olivia Nuzzi Placed on Leave After Alleged Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Relationship
A New York magazine reporter has been placed on leave for allegedly engaging in a “personal” relationship with Robert F. Kennedy.
Star political journalist Olivia Nuzzi, who has been the Washington correspondent for the publication since 2017, was recently placed on leave for disclosing an alleged relationship with a former independent 2024 presidential candidate. Though Olivia didn’t name the politician by name, NBC News, citing the New York Times and CNN, report it to be RFK, who is married to Cheryl Hines.
“Olivia Nuzzi acknowledged to the magazine’s editors that she had engaged in a personal relationship with a former subject relevant to the 2024 campaign while she was reporting on the campaign,” a Sept. 19 statement by New York magazine detailed. “A violation of the magazine’s standards around conflicts of interest and disclosures.”
The magazine noted that an internal review of the work produced by the 31-year-old—who is engaged to Politico’s Chief Washington Correspondent Ryan Lizza—throughout the 2024 presidential campaign thus far had found “no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias”
“She is currently on leave from the magazine, and the magazine is conducting a more thorough third-party review,” the statement concluded. “We regret this violation of our readers’ trust.”
