They aren’t that I have seen, do you have examples? She was getting a lot of attention for how the Epstein saga played out in Congress, and now is the highest profile example of a MAGA true believer who is willing to talk publicly about being driven out of the cult. There’s perhaps a tendency currently to focus on these recent events more than her history as a piece of shit, but I’ve yet to see any articles that ignore who and how she is.
Yes, go read the author defending her in the comments section of the article in question that also does in fact try to position her as a character evolving toward respectability
To me it’s just a cheap ploy to capitalize on someone they view as a traitor to maga. It is another appeal to the center right
I read about a half dozen of the authors comments and I’m not seeing it? They seem to be polite and diplomatic but the closest thing to defending her is providing details about the “Jewish space lasers” incident.
Is she not a character making a play for respectability? I don’t understand how reporters pointing that out is an issue, it is factually what is happening. I agree she isn’t a respectable person and never will be, but it doesn’t change what is currently going on with her.
I also don’t understand how it is a cheap ploy for the news media to cover her defection/excommunication. That seems inherently newsworthy to me, I think it would be weird if they didn’t cover it and ignored the situation.
Ignore what? Cover what situation? The ongoing crisis between MTG and maga/trump? That isn’t a real situation and it was covered on the spot because it was a tweet some time ago followed by MTG doing press runs.
What’s being covered are conjured media stories simply caring about her for no reason that conclude she is being rehabilitated in some manner.
This is manufactured propaganda to keep her in the spotlight and rehab her image in what I can only imagine is a stupid attempt to fuel anti trumpism
She’s a bare naked political opportunist who has been doing a continuous press tour about being betrayed by maga and having her life endangered by Trump.
She has dodged all questions about her complicity, no reporters have meaningfully pushed her on anything (though we may have different standards for what constitutes good journalism), and we see nyt using and concluding with mtg’s own premise of evolving toward respectability
They, nyt and cbs are egregious examples, are creating the very appearance of respectability she is probably not only paying to create but also serves as another avenue to drive negative attention toward maga and Trump

I don’t think I’m following. Why do you think MTG is faking it? Who do you think is manufacturing anti-Trump propaganda?
