In the Trump trial circus, is the ex-president the ringmaster or the lion? Olivia Nuzzi, Washington correspondent for New York magazine, and Vanity Fair staff writer Dan Adler discuss the nonspectacle spectacle happening in Lower Manhattan’s criminal court.
Stelter and Adler are joined by Olivia Nuzzi, New York magazine Washington correspondent, to examine the media circus surrounding the ex-president in Lower Manhattan and discuss exactly what it’s like to cover Trump’s criminal trial today while it feels like 2016. There are obviously no cameras in the courtroom, so Nuzzi emphasizes that it’s critical for journalists to shout every detail and talk about every aspect.
” She recounts a phone call with someone she’s known for a decade in which she said, “I don’t know, was it always inevitable that we were going to end up in criminal court covering this?” As a reporter in the courtroom, your movement, according to both Adler and Nuzzi, is very scripted. The two share similar stories with Stelter about being locked in the bathroom by the Secret Service when they took breaks while Trump was holding informal pressers with reporters in the hallway.
