After a dismal week for the Biden administration on several fronts, the New York Times published a "Puff piece" profile on White House press secretary Jen Psaki, which repeatedly praised her as "Straightforward" and "Professional," Fox News reported Sunday.
The Times piece, which was published on Friday, is titled "Bully Pulpit No More: Jen Psaki's Turn at the Lectern" and details her rise to "Political fame" and her journey to becoming an "Unlikely cultural force." The piece was also published in the Boston Globe over the weekend.
A cult of Psaki has proliferated online, where clips of her restrained, if occasionally withering exchanges with reporters have established this once obscure political strategist as an unlikely cultural force.
"Ms. Psaki, in her speaking style, is a contrast to Mr. Biden and his circuitous folksiness. In interviews, Washington correspondents often used the word 'professional' - high praise in D.C. - to describe interactions with her, deeming her straightforward, detail-dense briefings a relief after an era when Mr. Trump's press secretaries repeatedly insulted, denigrated and frequently ignored journalists," he wrote.
Jen Psaki goes missing the day the Pentagon announces the Biden admin drones 7 kids, France recalls it's ambassador, 12,000 people are being stored under a bridge in Texas and the FDA just rejected Biden booster plan.
"Jen Psaki goes missing the day the Pentagon announces the Biden admin drones 7 kids, France recalls it's ambassador, 12,000 people are being stored under a bridge in Texas and the FDA just rejected Biden booster plan. but we have another glowing puff profile. Great work everyone," he said.
Psaki reportedly did not respond to a request for comment from the Times.
