Overview
- Lizza published a Telos News post titled "Part 1: How I Found Out," alleging his then‑fiancée slept with Sanford while reporting on his brief 2020 presidential bid.
- He cites Kimpton hotel stationery dated March 5, 2020 and a note addressed to "Mark" as evidence, which remains single‑sourced to his account.
- Nuzzi had profiled Sanford in 2019 for New York Magazine and had publicly noted spending time with him during that reporting.
- The post also claims Keith Olbermann financially supported Nuzzi years earlier; Olbermann reacted on X by pointing to the Sanford allegation and did not address the financial specifics.
- Nuzzi has not publicly responded to the new claims, and coverage follows earlier revelations about her sexting relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as excerpts of her memoir, due December 2, circulate.
