[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haberman’s mom runs a PR firm that has/has had (not sure which) the Trumps and Kushners as clients, so there’s a perception that she’s pro-Trumps/Kushners.[/quote]

She’s also about as painfully NYT as it gets and that’s a serious problem in its own right.[/quote]

Her dad was also an NYT columnist. She's nepotism personified and is obsessed with fame and going viral -- just like the Kushners and Trumps.[/quote]

The nepotism charge is such nonsense.     Haberman worked in journalism for 19 years (NY Post, Politico, CNN) before joining the Times.        And even those who disagree with her political slant cannot argue that she has broken many stories, and is an incredibly hard worker.[/quote]

Nonsense? Do you not get that she's almost entirely the product of being from a comically small world? Even if you use the narrowest definition of nepotism, she's painfully the product of starting in the right place more than anything else.[/quote]
