Yesterday, Jim Acosta, formerly the CNN White House correspondent, "interviewed" Joaquin Oliver, one of 17 people murdered at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in 2018. Or, to be more accurate, he asked questions of an AI avatar of Oliver, with the permission of the late teenager's family, and then streamed it on Substack and YouTube. For her The Present Age newsletter, @parkermolloy.com breaks down the myriad problems with the "interview." "This wasn't journalism," she writes. "Whether it was his intention or not, this was Jim Acosta turning a murdered child into content."
