If anyone had told me a couple of years ago that I’d be singing the praises of Matt Taibbi, I’d have told them they were high. I wasn’t particularly familiar with Taibbi — just knew he’d been a writer for Rolling Stone and had written some things I found obnoxious. I also knew our politics were miles apart.
And then the Twitter Files happened. When Taibbi first broke the Twitter Files story in December of 2022, I started paying closer attention to him. Because differ though our views might, I recognized he was someone who, like me, firmly believes in the freedom of speech, and he seemed willing to stick his neck out in defense of it at a time when many seemed cowed. I began listening to his “America This Week” podcast, and it soon became part of my regular Saturday morning routine.
