At the time, New York Magazine released a statement confirming, “Recently, our Washington Correspondent 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 violation of the magazine’s standards around conflicts of interest and disclosures. Had the magazine been aware of this relationship, she would not have continued to cover the presidential campaign.”
What else is happening around RFK Jr.?
The book news surfaced shortly after The View co-host Joy Behar questioned Kennedy’s wife, Cheryl Hines, over his stance on vaccines. Behar said, “It seems as though Bobby and Trump are casting doubt on the efficacy of the vaccine, which makes Americans very nervous, so that’s the problem that we’re having.”

Cheryl responded, “So my question is, can we do better? Yes to vaccines, they are important, and they are an important part of our healthcare.”
“Can we do better? Can we make them safer? Can we listen to parents who say, My child got the vaccine and changed and stopped hitting markers, stopped developing the way they were developing,” she said.
