新闻日期：2024-07-10
华盛顿邮报意见编辑亚历克斯·麦卡蒙德（Alexi McCammond）最近在TikTok上发布了一段视频，她吐舌头、吹口哨，并配文：“早上好！我想说‘早上’，但我的那个有害的前任现在为拜登竞选团队工作，还在清理上次辩论的烂摊子。”她在视频下方写道：“确实很小巧呢，就像泰勒·斯威夫特在她的最新专辑里所说的那样。”
麦卡蒙德的前任男友蒂杰·杜克洛（TJ Ducklo）曾是2020年拜登竞选团队的全国新闻秘书。他在与Politico记者塔拉·帕尔默里的对话中曾威胁要“毁掉”她，如果她报道他的个人生活。后来，他因做出污言辱语和性别歧视的评论而辞去了副新闻秘书一职。
麦卡蒙德在2021年与杜克洛的关系被公开后，称自己是在2020年11月开始交往的。当时她是一名Axios的记者，并继续报道副总统哈里斯（Kamala Harris）。这引发了伦理上的疑问。
原文摘要：
A Washington Post editor posted a TikTok last month taunting a “toxic” ex-boyfriend who works for the Biden campaign amid scrutiny about the president’s dismal debate performance. Washington Post opinion editor Alexi McCammond posted a TikTok on June 29, sticking her tongue out and blowing kisses with on-screen text that reads, “Good morning! I’d just say ‘morning’ but I’m not my toxic ex who works for the Biden campaign and has to play cleanup after that disastrous debate.” She also posted a caption for the video, writing, “Big job for, as Taylor Swift might say, the smallest man alive,” referencing the pop star’s latest album. McCammond was referring to senior adviser TJ Ducklo, who left the Biden White House shortly after the president took office while he was still dating the journalist. Ducklo resigned in February 2021 as deputy press secretary amid allegations he made “derogatory and misogynistic” remarks to Politico reporter Tara Palmeri, who reported on his relationship with McCammond. AXIOS POLITICAL REPORTER’S RELATIONSHIP WITH TOP BIDEN STAFFER RAISES ETHICS CONCERNS The allegations against him stemmed from an off-the-record call between Palmeri and Ducklo earlier that year, during which he allegedly said: “I will destroy you.” After significant backlash, Ducklo decided to resign. In a surprising turn of events, Ducklo announced in June 2023 that he would join the Biden re-election campaign in a senior role. It’s unclear when Ducklo and McCammond’s relationship ended, but there appears to be little affection left given McCammond’s trolling video. It was highlighted by the Washington Free Beacon, as well as Democratic commentator Kaivan Shroff, who made note of the reporter’s tumultuous history. “Washington Post opinions editor posts clear bias against Biden (because of her ex) on TikTok…same person had to step down after being selected as editor of Teen Vogue over old racist tweets. Not a great look,” he tweeted. McCammond was tapped to become editor-in-chief of the far-left outlet Teen Vogue in 2021, but it ended before she even got started. She and the Condé-Nast-owned outlet parted ways after an uproar over decade-old tweets, for which she previously apologized in 2019. “You’ve seen some offensive, idiotic tweets from when I was a teenager that perpetuated harmful and racist stereotypes about Asian Americans. I apologized for them years ago, but I want to be clear today: I apologize deeply to all of you for the pain this has caused,” she wrote in a note to Teen Vogue staff. WH AIDE TJ DUCKLO RESIGNS AFTER DEMEANING REPORTER DESPITE BIDEN’S WARNING OF FIRING McCammond and Duklo’s relationship became public in 2021. They claimed they began dating in November 2020 when she was a political reporter for Axios. McCammond was subsequently taken off the “Biden beat,” although she continued to cover Vice President Kamala Harris after she took office, raising ethics concerns. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Ducklo previously served as the national press secretary for the Biden 2020 campaign. His threats to destroy Palmeri if she reported on his personal life cast an immediate shadow on the Biden White House, which came in promising a clean slate working with reporters after the tumultuous Trump years. McCammond, who is also a contributor to MSNBC, joined the Washington Post last year after a second stint at Axios. The Washington Post and Biden campaign did not return Fox News Digital’s requests for comment. Fox News’ David Rutz and Brian Flood contributed to this report.
