Good for Leibovich if he publishes an e-mail or two that embarrasses journalists

Columbia Journalism Review
“A book that looks at the D.C. media nexus and doesn’t offer someone a measure of embarrassment would be like a film on the desert showing no sand,” writes Clint Hendler. || Dana Milbank: “From what I understand, the e-mails won’t look good for Politico if and when [Mark] Leibovich releases them.” || Marc Ambinder: “I don’t recall sending Bardella anything that would interest Leibovich.”
> Politico requested e-mails of other reporters in 2009 | Its response
> “People around Washington are very nervous about Leibovich’s book”
