I don’t actually care about marital affairs! Monogamy is generally unrealistic for many people in the long-term & infidelity is common. That’s their business. Russini having an affair with a source she covers as part of her job is public business bc it affects her ability to do her job properly.

Even if it’s not an affair, there is no world in which I meet up with a source & their friends at a hotel & hold hands with them. Even if I’m profiling them & spending a day together for the story, we aren’t engaging in that kind of physical affection EVER. That alone breaks the ethics of the job.

Like come on, I’m gay and cover the WNBA and other women’s sports. Do you know how many sources I’ve wanted to flirt with or even be friends with?? A lot! But I’m not willing to risk my career even if to climb a hot basketball players like a tree lol

My sentiments so exactly I had a momentary out of body experience.

(Not really.)

(I mean, yes, those are my exact sentiments, but I stayed put in my corporeal frame.)

You don't care about betrayal and deception in intimate relationships? 🤨

You think it's ok, because it's common? So is intimate violence.

More like, it wouldn't be disqualifying for her job if it was just an affair with some rando. But you know that already.
