Olivia Nuzzi, Washington correspondent for New York magazine, has admitted to "sexting" US Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. while covering the 2024 campaign. In a disclosure to the magazine, Nuzzi revealed that she had "engaged in a personal relationship with a former subject relevant to the campaign." However, she did not initially name Kennedy.
