A couple days ago there was a very long and popular article on Tablet. It basically illustrates how the Women's March had problems from the very beginning, and how it only benefits a few women. Everything from the antisemitism of Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour, the trademarking of the Women's March, the financing of a 501(c)(4) and 501(c)(3) both using the name "Woman's March" is discussed. There is a lot of information and it's a good read.
There are a lot of journalists who agree. A ton of journalist who shared the story got an E-mail from a PR company called "Megaphone Strategies" saying the Tablet article was bogus.

So they would get the "real" scoop from this PR company, so long as they deleted any links to the Tablet article, and the info they got was off-the-record. So they would have to denounce the Tablet article in order to get so called "verified" information they couldn't report on.
You can see many other journalist got the same email in Miriam's thread. No one is falling for it As far as we know, Megaphone Strategies works on behalf of the Women's March
