Maggie Haberman: Daily Routine
From Amtrak commutes to late-night source calls, Maggie Haberman’s day is a blur of reporting, writing, and relentless political coverage.
“I never wanted to be a reporter,” Maggie Haberman admitted to The Cut in a 2017 profile. Funny how things turned out for the New York Times journalist and CNN analyst, who is considered one of the greatest political reporters working today.
When Donald Trump announced his candidacy in June 2015, Haberman, who had already been reporting on him for a decade, was assigned to cover his campaign. When the 2016 US Presidential campaign was wrapping up, she thought the insanity would end. Hilary Clinton would win the presidency, Donald Trump would go back to being Donald Trump, and life would go back to normal for her.
