Olivia Nuzzi got a no-contact order against her (ex-, obviously) fiance Ryan Lizza after he got super pissed when he found out she was Myspace-banging Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Nuzzi says Lizza threatened to make her affair public, which I’m not sure you have an expectation of “the person I cheated on can’t tell anybody,” but anyway I haven’t read the court filing and maybe he was very bad! She calls it extortion and blackmail. (CNN)

It was still a hit!) and tomorrow I’ll do this and this and this.
