Ezra Klein recently interviewed Jane Mayer about, among other things, her expose of Eric Schneiderman’s history of abuse. I’m grateful for Jane Mayer’s journalism – she uncovers big stories skillfully. I have awe for her. But on at least one set of questions, she and I think differently. In her conversation with Klein, Mayer said, […]
This is Sheila’s version of our recent date. I think it’s hotter than my version. What do you think?
