Maggie Haberman

The people who watch CNN know why they are watching CNN. They hate Donald Trump, and they love to hear him compared to Hitler, or perhaps murderous dinosaurs. On Thursday's The Lead, host Jake Tapper fed the CNN base by bringing up a recent "progressive" Trump insult, comparing his second term to the velociraptors in Jurassic Park figuring out how to terrify the humans.

Despite its alleged concern for the decline of civility in politics, the New York Times is actually all in on political slander and name-calling lately -- when it’s in the service of defeating Donald Trump. For the second time in under two weeks, the paper reveled in the party’s new tactic of throwing the dirty word “fascist” at Trump to see if it would stick (not that they didn’t do…

New York Times reporters Shane Goldmacher, Maggie Haberman, and Michael Gold were on the scene for the purported Trump hate-fest held at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. The resulting story featured what political polling guru (and Kamala Harris supporter) Nate Silver in his newsletter called “the sort of headline” the paper’s “liberal critics” have “been pining for”: “A Closing…

Trying to explain why Donald Trump held onto classified documents after leaving the presidency, Morning Joe describes him as a pathological, weird, bizarre, criminal hoarder, similar to John Nash, the schizophrenic mathematician who was the subject of the movie, A Beautiful Mind.

Thursday’s CNN Primetime did what the broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC wouldn’t do on their flagship morning and evening news shows by diving into Wednesday’s infamous photo of President Biden holding a notecard with a Los Angeles Times reporter’s name, picture, and a version of a question she’d ask during a press conference with the South Korean president.

The Democrat Party meltdown continued apace Sunday over President Biden's decision not to veto a congressional override of Washington D.C.'s soft-on-crime legislation if it reached his desk. This time by ABC contributor and former DNC chair Donna Brazile who scolded Biden to "not be engaged in D.C. affairs" during ABC's This Week's "Powerhouse Roundtable." 

There was some good old-school New York Times labeling bias on Wednesday’s front page, on California Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s fight to become House Speaker when the Republican Party takes over control of Congress next month: “McCarthy Fights to Clear Path to Speaker’s Seat.” The front-page text box set the hostile labeling tone: “Trump’s Lobbying Has Not Moved Critics on the Far Right.” …

New York Times White House correspondent and rumor mill spigot Maggie Haberman joined the cast of ABC’s The View on Monday to peddle her book Confidence Man, the latest anti-Trump book to be hawked by a member of the supposedly objective press. During this interview, she was pressed on the media’s role in elevating former President Trump and helping him get into…

New York Times senior political reporter Maggie Haberman kicked off ABC’s This Week’s "Powerhouse Roundtable" with some hilarious irony on Sunday morning. With a straight face, Haberman claimed that the Republican Party is conducting a “purging of anybody who goes against a certain orthodoxy.” Apparently unaware that her own party is doing the same thing by primarying the few “…

Maggie Haberman of The New York Times reports that the time for hardball has arrived. The Republican National Committee says it may require candidates to pledge to not participate in debates run by the Commission on Presidential Debates. In recent years, the moderators have caused controversy by insisting on "fact checking" the Republicans (and aiding the impression of victory for the…

Today we present the WORST OF 2021: The Media Heroes Award.

Katie Pavlich at Townhall reports that during a "Santa Tracker" event with the Bidens on Christmas Eve, a parent ended his conversation with by saying, "Let's Go Brandon." Biden then said it back, like he didn't know what it means. Reporters expressed anger. This isn't a classy Christmas move at all, but reporters sounded like Biden voters. 

CNN’s morning show New Day spent two segments today whining about the anti-Biden “Let’s Go Brandon” joke trend often heard at sports stadiums across the country. Despite delighting in foul outbursts from Democrats about President Trump, CNN pretended to be bothered by expletives, because they were directed at a Democrat president.

CNN's New Day panel defends AOC wearing a Tax the Rich dress to a $30,000-a-ticket Met Gala, suggesting it was brave for her to do so and the opposite of hobnobbing.
