Ms. Haberman topped out at 599 bylines in 2016 - that’s both solo bylines and shared ones-and she also leads The Times this year. She’s often the only one able to reliably confirm facts in Mr. Trump’s chaotic and dishonest orbit.
The progressive loathing of Haberman draws some of its force from the mistaken belief that straight news reporters should stand up to the president and call him out for his unfitness to hold office. Some people who believe this fail to grasp the distinction between news gathering and opinion journalism.
Maggie Haberman is a White House correspondent who joined The Times in 2015 and was part of a team that won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for reporting on Donald Trump’s advisers and their connections to Russia.
In a new book and in an interview, Mr. Christie says that if the former president wants to be a positive force, “he’s got to let this other stuff go.”
John Eastman, the author of a memo that some in both parties liken to a blueprint for a coup, sent a hostile email to the vice president’s chief counsel as the mob attacked.
As Rudolph Giuliani faces an escalating federal investigation and defamation suits, his advisers believe he should benefit from a $250 million Trump campaign war chest. By Maggie Haberman and Ben Protess.
Maggie Haberman lives rent-free in Donald Trump’s head, all over the front page of The New York Times and also in a brick house in an unglamorous Brooklyn neighborhood out beyond the Citi Bikes and stately brownstones. On election night, as the votes started coming in, she was seated at her dining room table with her husband and one of her three children, drinking from a liter bottle of Foodtown raspberry seltzer, eating leftover Kit Kats from Halloween, typing and texting, and, still, still, working her sources.
Ms. Parker , now a White House reporter for The Washington Post, recalled that “Maggie and I were like aliens from another planet describing this Martian king to the people of The New York Times in a way they could not fathom.”. They didn’t have to wait long for Mr. Trump to test the limits of the presidency.

Politics used to be covered as a kind of a sport, but it doesn’t feel like that anymore. (John King of CNN was jeered for calling vote counting “fun” on election night.) And despite the television glamour and lucrative book contracts that flooded in for reporters in the Trump era, the real work of reporting is painstaking and exhausting: getting people, one by one, to tell you things they should not, and then telling your readers about them.
The president, though, will go. And Ms. Haberman is not going to move to Washington to join the new White House team, she said, but instead anticipates covering some blend of the new administration and the enduring Trump orbit from New York. She hopes that she’ll break more news, and worries that she’ll lose her touch.
On Tuesday, Mr. Heilemann declined to comment about the woman’s account, except to say he had no memory of their conversation.
Replacing Mr. Halperin will be Alex Wagner, a CBS News anchor and former MSNBC host. She will join two of the original hosts, the writer John Heilemann, Mr. Halperin’s longtime professional partner, and Mark McKinnon, a Stetson-sporting political consultant.
Halperin, in 2016 with his co-hosts, John Heilemann, center, and Mark McKinnon, will be replaced by Alex Wagner of CBS News.
Mr. Halperin ’s role in the show, though, was outsize: He interviewed President Trump aboard Air Force One for the show’s second season last year, and enjoyed access to Mr. Trump and his inner circle throughout the 2016 race.
HBO, one of Showtime’s rivals, also canceled a planned “Game Change” movie about the 2016 presidential race.
A celebrity among political reporters, Mr. Halperin joined ABC News in 1988 after graduating from Harvard University, working his way up from an entry-level position as a desk assistant and rising through the ranks to become political director in 1997.
Oct. 30, 2017. MSNBC and NBC News dismissed the veteran political journalist Mark Halperin on Monday, joining several other organizations that have also severed ties with him after a group of women came forward last week to accuse him of sexual misconduct.
As one of the country’s best-known journalists, Mr. Halperin co-wrote “Double Down: Game Change 2012,” a book about the 2012 election. It was made into a movie for HBO, which said last week that it was dropping a planned television adaptation of his coming book about the 2016 election.
Mr. Halperin’s contract with MSNBC and NBC News has been terminated, a spokesman at MSNBC said in an email on Monday, three days after the “Game Change” author apologized for the “aggressive and crude” behavior he had exhibited while working at ABC News more than a decade ago.
The Yale happiness class, formally known as Psyc 157: Psychology and the Good Life, is one of the most popular classes to be offered in the university’s 320-year history. The class was only ever taught in-person once, during the spring 2018 semester, as a 1,200-person lecture course in the largest space on campus.
Tracy Morgan, a programming supervisor at the Bob Snodgrass Recreation Complex in High River in Alberta, Canada, signed up for the class last June, as she was in lockdown with her children and husband. “There’s no reason I shouldn’t be happy,” she said. “I have a wonderful marriage. I have two kids.
Image. In 2018, almost 1,200 Yale students took Psyc 157: Psychology and the Good Life. The class was moved to Woolsey Hall, the university’s concert venue, from Battell Chapel, which could only accommodate a crowd of 800.
Four out of five people say that they suffer from sleep problems at least once a week and wake up feeling exhausted. Here’s a guide to becoming a more successful sleeper.
That March, a free 10-week version made available to the public via Coursera, titled “the Science of Well-Being,” also became instantly popular, attracting hundreds of thousands of online learners. But when lockdowns began last March, two full years later, the enrollment numbers skyrocketed. To date, over 3.3 million people have signed up, according to the website.
Journalist Maggie Haberman, 43, has broken some of the largest scoops of the Trump administration, including the recent ouster of chief strategist Steve Bannon. She is also a political analyst for CNN who, before she landed at the Times, worked for Politico and the New York Daily News. She has been dubbed “maybe the greatest political reporter ...
There’s this line from Broadcast News where Albert Brooks is a TV correspondent and says sarcastically, “Let’s never forget, we’re the real story, not them,” mocking people who try to become the story. I really don’t like Twitter. I use it a lot, but I don’t like it. It just feels antithetical to what reporters are supposed to do, which is to take time, take all the time you can, to be as thoughtful as possible. That’s quite difficult in 140 characters. Or not pulling the trigger too fast when you’re still trying to process something. That’s where I’ve made my most mistakes on Twitter: pulling the trigger too fast when the situation is unfolding or electric.
