Jake Tapper Reportedly Hires a Crisis Communications Firm to Stop Criticism

Whaaaa...? Jake Tapper getting enraged and defensive about valid criticism and using sneaky social media tactics to push back on it? That makes no sense at all!

Tapper is getting a lot of criticism from a lot of people for posing as a "reporter" on Biden's Dementia.

He made a PR move yesterday, offering a non-apology on CNN. It's the standard non-apology, where you say something that sounds a little reflective and self-critical but in fact you're doubling down.

If you didn't see the wormy non-apology, it's here. He says, prompted by his CNN colleague who was certainly told to ask him this question, claiming that only "conservatives" are criticizing him, "some of it [the conservatives' criticism] is fair, to be honest... but knowing then what I know now, I look back at my coverage, and I did cover some of these issues but not enough, and I look back in humility."

He then insists that Biden only became demented around 2023-2024, continuing to insist there was no story before then. Though he also does acknowledge that the separation of Biden into the "functioning one and non-functioning one" began in 2019-2020. But he is firm that it wasn't that bad at that time, thus absolving himself and all his fellow Regime Conspiracists from having noticed it until June 2024.

We can now see that this non-apology was almost certainly offered only because the crisis manager he'd hired told him to offer a fake, non-specific statement about the indisputable and now-notorious fact that Tapper himself was one of the main architects of the very cover up he now wants to be paid to "expose."

And wait until you see the crisis manager's client list!

Breaker reported earlier this month that Tapper has hired Risa Heller, a crisis communication expert described as the "warrior of choice" for "cancellable elites" trying to survive a scandal. In 2022, Heller met with former CNN boss Jeff Zucker days before he was forced to resign for, among other things, concealing a romantic relationship with a subordinate executive. She helped Anthony Weiner navigate his (first) dick-pic scandal in 2011. Jeffrey Toobin, the disgraced CNN personality, sought Heller's counsel in 2020 after he was caught pleasuring himself on a Zoom call with colleagues. She worked with convicted Theranos fraudster Elizabeth Holmes on a sympathetic puff piece in the New York Times ahead of her sentencing. She represented an Estée Lauder executive who posted a Sesame Street meme using the n-word, and defended the voice of Elmo against allegations of sexual impropriety with minors. Now she's helping Tapper learn how to be "nicer" to fellow journalists.
Some context: Tapper is a notorious crank with a habit of sending indignant DMs to journalists and other commentators who criticize him on social media. Some have described his stubbornness, thirst for vengeance, and refusal to admit fault as "positively Bidenesque." There's at least some evidence that Heller's human decency training has rubbed off. The day after Breaker revealed the PR flack's involvement in the book rollout, Tapper praised his co-author, Alex Thompson of Axios, as a "great reporter and a kind person and a good friend," which was awfully sweet of him.
...
Mark Halperin, among others, has a different view. "One thing that's not true is that the cover-up was so good that no one could see this, that we couldn't possibly have gotten to the bottom of this during the election," he said. "It is not true that it's only after the election that Jake Tapper could've gotten to the bottom of this, and the rest of the Washington press corps could've gotten to the bottom of this." The media were not simply "stymied from getting to the truth" by lying White House aides, Halperin argued. "No, they were part of the conspiracy and the cover-up. They allowed themselves to believe the ridiculous spin on TV and in public, and privately they allowed themselves to be browbeat," he said. "They were told, you will lose access ... Reporters who covered any story the Biden people didn't like were denied access."

Media reporter Dylan Byers noted Tapper's insane levels of "self-promotion and sanctimony" are even bothering to annoy his fellow leftwing hacktivists.

And now we know who made that deceptively-edited video that both Tapper and Thompson linked, which purported to show, through cheapfake manipulation, Tapper showing any interest in the story.

From February, when Tapper brazenly announced that he would be uncovering the cover-up that he so energetically participated in:

Stephen Green
@VodkaPundit
Watching @jaketapper cash in on his own professional malfeasance is probably the most Beltway thing ever.

Some memories of the media joining Tapper in the conspiracy:

Via Drew Holden: NBC "News" cited "brain experts" to reassure citizens not to worry about Biden's clearly-shot memory, that doesn't affect his ability make decisions at all!

It's like when people lose their sight and their other senses get very sharp to compensate. So Biden's brains are rotting garbage when it comes to memory. That just means that his wisdom and judgment functions must have gotten super-sharp.

Right? That's how it works, right, "brain experts"?

"No one could have known!"

September, 2023. Jake Tapper has on a writer from The Atlantic named Franklin Foer. Foer had just written a "behind the scenes" book about Joe Biden's presidency and his ability to do the job.

41 To be clear, Jake Tapper cares about one thing. Jake Tapper. Arguably, the book wasn't written to elevate him, personally. It was cover for those that make decisions about Jake Tapper's continued presence on CNN.

More specifically, ask yourself a question. Do you really think Jake Tapper controls the topics and positions on his own show? He's property just like every other show on CNN (and every other "journalist" employed by a major media conglomerate).

Tapper is running interference (and trying to carry favor) with Mark Thompson (sorry, I don't use "Sir" before anyone's name...it's childish). The decisions makers enlist the media owners (Thompson) who give the marching orders to the "talent" (Tapper).

Tapper thinks if he obfuscates and wiggles around a bit, he comes out looking better...(not to the public)...but to the head of CNN who does the hiring and firing.

47 Speaking of which, we need to go after Dr. O'Connor's medical license.

O'Connor, in an official medical memo released for publication, described Biden as a "healthy, vigorous, 80-year-old male", when at the same time he was doing everything possible behind the scenes to limit Biden's activities.

O'Connor was also likely to have been a participant in the discussions regarding putting Biden in a wheelchair if he was reelected.

Physicians have a professional obligation to testify truthfully to medical matters.

O'Connor had the option to say nothing about Biden's state of health, due to doctor-patient privilege; but if he chose to publicly discuss Biden's state of health, he was under a professional obligation not to lie about it.

I mean I got this brain knowlege without any of the schools these experts go to but and I'm not part of any brain guild or brain union but I'm pretty sharp and quick with the witty shit that gets me into so much trouble.

Possibly. I think the candidate for 2028 will ultimately be a white guy. No, that's not the Democrap way. But they've tried a white woman in 2016 (Hillary). She got thumped. They tried a blackish Indian woman in 2024. Double-thumped. The only candidate to "win" in the last few cycles was a white guy (Biden). And probably another white guy (Bernie) would have had a better chance in 2016.

As soon as Kamala had to make any decision or speak in public the story would have shattered like glass. She had almost as many Sundown days as Biden. Biden picked her to be an unexploded bomb if someone tried to remove him. It was brilliant and worked perfectly once he made her the candidate.

243 push polls combined with name recognition poll. That's why Kamala was coming out on top in the first few weeks, but she's fading into the woods very quickly. Truth is they have no leader at all, so whoever has made the most noise in the previous couple of news cycles jumps to the top.

Remember when Cory Booker's Filibuster of Nothing was going to make him a serious, important Leader?

That's smart because that's pretty much exactly what the Golden and Silver Age Superman comics were. It leaves a lot of room characters to "show us" who they are.

Although, when they did a "week in the life" of Hellboy (2016), everyone, except me, pretty much hated it.

The Wall is going to be a sad experience for her, I'm afraid.

Since she hit puberty she's no doubt been surrounded by guys who pretend to pay attention to her nonsensical jabbering because they're hoping to get laid.

Trump is renaming the San Andres Fault to Biden's on all maps and Google

The media has no soul to search for, so they will never look at how they created the environment in which a great president could leave office deeply unpopular due to mostly a completely uninformed populous, while a truly awful president was thrust upon America as a savior from things that are mostly ___inary problems.

No Democrat would have won. Trump quit campaigning half-way through because the fix was in. In a world with a difference of one-or-two-points, how could they have taken the trifecta?

Biden was stabbed in the back by his own party. Biden misspoke and flubbed a few lines during the debate and overboard he went, along with his stellar accomplishments.

Trump paused campaigning for like a week after the Kamala switch.

And then he barnstormed for 3 months.

He also threw the biggest klan rally NYC has ever seen.

384 The media were not simply "stymied from getting to the truth" by lying White House aides, Halperin argued. "No, they were part of the conspiracy and the cover-up. They allowed themselves to believe the ridiculous spin on TV and in public, and privately they allowed themselves to be browbeat," he said. "They were told, you will lose access ... Reporters who covered any story the Biden people didn't like were denied access."

OK now let that last bit sink in; "They were told, you will lose access ... Reporters who covered any story the Biden people didn't like were denied access."

Now, I imagine you're not surprised by this particular idea, it was pretty obvious that the Biden administration would do this, they did it with Clinton and Obama before him.

But let us put this in context. President Trump's team banned the AP from the white house press pool for refusing to call the Gulf of America by its new name. The press freaked out like a bee got in the car. HE IS DESTROYING FREE SPEECH!!! FASCISM!!!

While meekly obeying the Biden administration to avoid ALL access to the White House.

389 As for the Superman trailer a couple things bothered me. One minor one is Supes calling Lois Lane "Cronkite." Boomer much? Cronkite retired like 50 years ago, a guy Clark's age wouldn't even recognize the name, let alone think it was a witty reference. ROGAN maybe, but Cronkite??

The costume looks dull and not quite right. None of the costumes look right, and DC used to be really good at making things comic accurate, or more so.

The trailer needs to show Superman as a hero, saving people, not whining about people distrusting him in an interview. That kind of question should be avoided in a comic book setting entirely.

I think the movie will be okay but I don't think Gunn gets Superman at all,

390 Doesn't that have John Leguizamo in it? He can f*ck right off. I won't pay a dime to see him in any movie.
Posted by: Sponge - F*ck Cancer at May 15, 2025 02:16 PM (Zz0t1)

I liked him in two movies, that I suppose played to his real-life personality.

One was a comedy, "The Pest" where he played the most annoying and obnoxious character imaginable as the target of a "The Most Dangerous Game" scenario. Very funny.

The second was the meth freakout dark comedy "Spun" where he played a totally obnoxious, totally sleazy, scumball drug dealer. He was very good in that in that you really hated him.

I suppose the key word here for the highpoints of the Leguizamo oeuvre is-

obnoxious.

391 I think it's funny that made up bullshit turns out to be made up bullshit and the made up bullshit is easy to identify as made up bullshit as it doesn't make any sense and is about as palatable as bullshit.
The story will never be straight as Superman is made up bullshit.

Worse is people arguing over which version of the bullshit isn't bullshit.

There are a couple like Andy Ngo, but this is the context of an INTERVIEW, which Cronkite was not exactly known for. It just doesn't make sense at any level, just Gunn trying to be witty.

He's secured sound stages in Italy for September, and he's got a distributor in Lionsgate (happened today).

I saw Mel's "Flight Risk" the other night (also distributed by Lionsgate) and really enjoyed it. Don't know how rewatchable it is but the performances by the leads were all a cut above other stuff I've seen them in.

Mel has his problems but he's a really great director and actor. He's kind of like Clint Eastwood that way, very good director who collects scripts he likes and makes them from the money he makes for studio jobs.

Besides, everyone knows that senile or no, they were NEVER going to let Joe Biden make any decisions. Come on! Everyone knows the real decisions were made by the same team as during the Obama administration, Valerie Jarret and Big Mikey Obama.

Do you seriously think we would actually trust Joe Biden with the Nuclear Football? The guy carrying that big case was my wife's nephew and the only thing in the case was an Etch-a-Sketch and emergency ice cream!

In fact, privately, where you couldn't see and hear, I told the other guards "maybe this is...you know...illegal, or immoral or something...I mean there was no way I could have known that the screams and pleading in the gas chamber weren't due to the intense pleasure of a warm shower. But now I know what happened, and oh boy am I ever steamed about this! I'm going to write a book and name names! Not my name of course, but the names of everyone else!
