An employee of the NYC Law Department, who had been publicly critical of mask mandates (especially those for toddlers), was just fired. Headline after headline says it was after or because she "posed as a reporter" to ask Mayor Eric Carter a question at a press conference. The articles contradict themselves on this point, as the department said they planned to terminate her before the presser, but also call into question - what is a "reporter" and who should be allowed in press conferences? Are they just private elite clubs?
