Kim Godwin Talks Scandals, Shake-Ups, and Success at ABC News
Good morning from the Hive newsroom! In a juicy sit-down with Charlotte Klein, ABC News president Kim Godwin addresses everything from gripes about her leadership style to the media’s feeding frenzy around Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes’s extramarital affair. “It’s hard for me to go back and try to figure out what happened before I got there,” Godwin, who took ABC’s reins in 2021, tells Klein. “All I can do is focus on right here, right now, this is the culture.”
Zooming out, on the politics front, Molly Jong-Fast opines on Donald Trump’s unbreakable hold over the GOP despite misgivings from party elites. “The problem with embracing a cult of personality,” she writes, “is that eventually you are left with a cult.” Plus, Bess Levin catches news that the former president is gathering an arsenal of opposition research to wield against Ron DeSantis in the 2024 presidential primary. Thanks for reading.
