Thrush started his reporting career working for Newsday as a City Hall reporter, covering mayors Ed Koch and Rudy Giuliani.

A leaked email released in October 2016, showed Thrush sending John Podesta portions of a draft article that dealt with Podesta, asking that he fact-check the statements, and writing: "No worries Because I have become a hack I will send u the whole section that pertains to u. Please don’t share or tell anyone I did this Tell me if I fucked up anything." Podesta did not ask for any changes, writing back "no problems here."
