It's true that it was ignored, but it's also true that she really didn't want her name to be public. When I talked to her at first, she didn't want her name to be public still. And I said I was trying to get her to do an interview with me. And she said that if I could get the affidavit, that she would agree to an interview. And I think ... that she didn't really think I could get the affidavit and that therefore she would not have to come forward.
But I did get the affidavit, and she lived up to what she said. She did do an interview with me. Almost everything that she said in the hearing she said in that interview. When I broke that story, I thought that there was a 50/50 chance it would just die, because if she left her house and was unreachable and didn't talk to anybody else in the news media, it would have died, without a human face. And she didn't do that. She was very young at the time. She was in her 20s. ...
You couldn't get a job doing what I did at a comparable news organization in those days, making the money that people in those other news organizations were making. There were very few of those people. That's the reason all of us of a certain age know each other. Lesley Stahl and I used to sit at the table in the Senate dining room, the press table in the Senate dining room all the time and talk because there were a handful of us.
Heidi Saman and Seth Kelley produced and edited this interview for broadcast. Bridget Bentz, Molly Seavy-Nesper and Meghan Sullivan adapted it for the Web.
The GOP Senators have delegitimized both the Court and the Senate. After willfully refusing to perform their Constitutional duty, obstructing President Obama’s nominee to steal a seat, they’ve now shown they have no principles. OverturnTrump DitchMitch2020 FlipTheSenateBlue
Looking forward to an assessment of her ‘reticence’ during her impeachment and removal in 2021.
I remember the days I listened to NPR for the news....those days are long gone. propaganda
The shame of being one of NPRs loudest propaganda ministers must be haunting. Lets hope she can redeem herself by reporting real news and reforming NPR before she ends her embarrassing career. FakeNews not even trying hide its bias. Shame.
Oh, I love Nina. One of the voices that makes me feel safe.

I have listened to NPR for 30 years and a donor. Now I refuse to support them because they won't report on the Hunter Biden story. This has been proven to be real. NPR get ready to eat some crow. All credibility is now gone.
She followed the precedence of Nina's friend, RBG. Speaking of reticence, why did Nina hide her friendship wiht RBG when she was covering the Supreme Court? DefundNPR
So RBG was reticent?
She was struck by the ugly stick too
Don’t worry, She will be loquacious when she is on the bench with a lifetime appointment.
This lady needs to retire. Is anyone at NPR under 60?
I am not concerned about this female judge not rushing to judge a matter that isn’t her place to judge yet. I call that kind of “reticence” a refreshing unbiased change that America needs in this shoot-off-your-mouth-without-all-the-facts society.
Nice interview

If she's so good maybe you should send her over to cover the Biden stuff. I mean, someone should, no?
Text-Only npr : Nina Totenberg On Amy Coney Barrett, Anita Hill And Saying Goodbye To RBG
DefundNPR it's nothing but a leftist political tabloid
I want to know how many gay couples with families she has interacted with on a deeper level, how many women who have had abortions, transgender people, people with no health ins. I suspect her circle is very small. No perspective. No wisdom. No understanding.
This story is just a distraction.
NPR is a publicly funded media office for the Democrat Party, and not a credible source of news.
We need to pull all taxpayer funding from fakenewsNPR
Of course she was reticent. Her rulings will follow whatever the People of Praise tell her to do. That's how cults work.
Totenberg was struck by the nominee's reticence. Umm remember rbg and sotomayor and kagan come on your either senile or biased none of them spoke of court cases at all
No way for this judge to become a SUPREME
She’s going to be the most extreme member on the court. She’ll be gleefully writing the opinions on decisions that will send us back to the dark ages.
1-After the way they treated Cavanaugh and 2-many prominent D’s proclaiming this process as unconstitutional (incorrectly by the way) how could you blame ACB for being guarded? And Hirono asking those repugnant questions in front of her family( instead of F/T/F in private) BS
