Biography

I'm a freelance journalist and Columbia Journalism School Graduate (class of 2021) who has written for The New York Times, The Daily Beast, Vulture, and Mother Jones, among others. From 2017 to 2019, I was a staff writer at the opinion website The Daily Banter, where I covered politics and culture. Last year, I published my first book: The Deadwood Bible: A Lie Agreed Upon, a comprehensive history of HBO's Deadwood which I co-wrote with Vulture TV critic Matt Zoller Seitz. As an editorial assistant, I have researched, transcribed interviews, and fact-checked for hundreds of articles, primarily with New York Magazine/Vox Media, where I have worked for the past nine years. I have performed similar duties for several books on film, TV and politics, most recently American Psychosis: A Historical Investigation into How the Republican Party Went Crazy, by Mother Jones journalist David Corn. I have an MFA in dramaturgy (the study of theater history) from both Harvard and the Moscow Art Theater School (class of 2016) and a bachelors in Performance Studies from Northwestern University (class of 2012).

    By Jeremy Fassler Verified| Medium@ Jeremy Fassler·Follow4 min read·--Shortly after President Trump’s swearing-in yesterday, Elon Musk made the Nazi salute (a.k.a. the Fascist salute) in front of a packed audience at Washington D.C.’s Capitol One Arena. Here is the video:This statement should not be controversial. We saw Musk do it before our own eyes. This isn’t the Zapruder film — no detailed analysis is necessary.

  • Dick Goodwin’s Example Can Set Precedent, If We Follow It

    By Jeremy Fassler Verified| Medium@ Jeremy Fassler·Follow8 min read·--Dick Goodwin, photograph courtesy of PoliticoI had planned on publishing something earlier this week, but everything I wrote felt too self-pitying to publish. I have no answers to what happened last week — nobody does — other than that the consequences will be dire, and that we have lost the order that has governed the world since the end of WWII, nearly 80 years ago.
