For me it went out the window when he left the intercept. He clearly has no interest in doing investigative journalism anymore. If he's not doing stuff like the Lava Jato coverage, he's no longer useful to the left, so doing "sure he's problematic, but..." doesn't make sense. That and I mean he's pretty explicitly right wing at this point, his current project is clearly to give a vaguely left-wing justification for people like Tucker and JD Vance.
