EXC: Global soccer boss Gianni Infantino and his inner circle tapped the Trump administration to secure a work permit for his Nicaraguan housekeeper after the White House scrapped her legal status, sources have told The Post. The embattled FIFA president enlisted a politically connected adviser to intervene with federal immigration officials on behalf of 33-year-old Yajarlin del Socorro Fernandez, whom the soccer body had continued employing for months after her work authorization was revoked, according to leaked documents, audio recordings, and three sources with direct knowledge of the matter. An internal FIFA letter obtained by The Post confirms Fernandez remained employed by the soccer organization through October 2025 — more than four months after the Trump administration revoked her permission to work in the US, according to two government sources familiar with her immigration file. nypost.com/2026/11/03/busine…

Hi @JeffreyGoldberg, given you know @WajahatAli personally and have published him (and published me too) in the Atlantic previously, are you okay with Kirchik calling Waj a terrorist (and also saying I'm not really an American)?

It's really interesting what happens when journalists leave an Ofcom regulated environment (TV news) for an unregulated environment (podcasting), and decide to express their opinions and personality. It can work well. It can also backfire.
Blimey! 😲 The Media Show is usually a polite discussion about the future of broadcasting. This week, I thought Lewis Goodall and Krishnan Guru-Murthy were going to settle it in the BBC car park!
