He was clearly referring to Julie K. Brown’s 2018 Miami Herald series “Perversion of Justice.”
Well, this is a facile lie, unsurprising from the New York Times, because before Brown, there was Alan Dershowitz and Mike Cernovich (another journalist) suing to unseal documents, and then Brown joined the party.
But that would undermine their morality play about newspapers and their funding.
- fttx_ 5y agoThis seems dubious to me. Dershowitz appears to be deeply personally implicated in Epstein’s crimes. Brown has been investigating Epstein since early 2017. I can’t see any evidence of Cernovich being involved that early. Do you have any? In fact, Cernovich and Dershowitz working together and “suing to unseal documents” looks like it’s that started in 2019, and while Dershowitz clearly has personal reasons for his involvement it looks like Cernovich’s involvement is in fact directly in response to Brown’s reporting.
