Oliver Darcy Aims to Expand ‘Status’ Newsletter With ‘Power Lines’ Podcast


Media journalist Oliver Darcy aims to expand his newsletter, 'Status,' with a new audio and video podcast called 'Power Lines'

In less than a year, “ Status ” has become a go-to resource for media-industry aficionados, and Darcy has been first to report on eyebrow-raising incidents ranging from accusations about former New York writer Olivia Nuzzi and her relationship with now-HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy after she wrote a profile of him to, more recently, Eva Pilgrim’s departure from ABC News to join CBS “Inside Edition.” The duo doesn’t intend to rely heavily on guests, which may set them apart from similar podcasts led by other media-beat journalists, including Dylan Byers, Peter Kafka or Aidan McLaughlin. Status is teaming up with In The Arena Studios, the new production outlet led by audio veteran Chris Corcoran, who has worked in recent years with everyone from Stephen A. Smith and Tony Kornheiser to Crooked Media, Goop and David Spade and Dana Carvey.
