The article also provided no evidence that Christie Smythe and Shkreli had anything other than the obvious journalist and source relationship (regardless of what Smythe thinks). This entire situation is bizarre and shady.

Is this a joke? She helped his attorney file a affidavit in Federal court that they were in a relationship and would be living with her upon his release.

And you were on Clubhouse last night. I’m so out of it, I don’t know what that is. What is Clubhouse?That was wild. I didn't know what Clubhouse was; I should’ve Googled it. Apparently it's some Silicon Valley thing and it had some association with trolls, and I didn't know that offhand. Somebody invited me to go because they said they were talking about me. And I said, okay, sure. The moderator was great. She was very promoting of respect. And it actually was a very good and healthy discussion, I think.

If I understand her correctly, I believe she's asserting that he knows so much about viruses because he is, himself, a virus.

what? I'm a news reporter for a bloomberg rival who also regularly covers court and nothing about Smythe and Shkreli's relationship as described is normal in any sense of the word.
I know most TV and films seem to think all female journalists sleep/flirt with their sources and I'm so sorry this story seems to feed into that bs, but come the fuck on.
Ms. Smythe said she had no regrets about how she had dealt with the ethically perilous issue of covering someone she had developed feelings for. “In journalism school, they don’t really tell you what to do when this comes up,” she said. “I just tried to muddle through it and handle things as best as I could.”
This quote from her in the NYT story is also... gah. If you start developing romantic feelings for your source, you take yourself off the story or end the relationship, jfc.

Don't know how I forgot about the reporter in a 'relationship' with Shkreli. Guess she's was still completely snowed as of a couple months back:
