CNN’s Tapper brings in PR crisis guru amid criticism of Biden cover-up book

May 17, 2025 | | Print Article

CNN anchor Jake Tapper retained the services of a crisis public relations specialist to assist with the release of his new book on the cover-up of former President Joe Biden’s mental decline.

Tapper and co-author Alex Thompson of Axios reportedly brought in Heller Co. CEO Risa Heller to offer advice on how to make the rolling out of the upcoming “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” as “smart as possible,” according to media reports.

Heller, who has been described as the “queen of scandal PR” and the “warrior of choice” for “cancellable elites,” has previously assisted clients with touchy reputations including former CNN boss Jeff Zucker, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes who was convicted of defrauding investors, disgraced Democrat Anthony Weiner, and CNN Zoom masturbator Jeffrey Toobin.

The whiny propagandist has been savaged for trying to portray himself as a hero with the belated book on Biden, published long after it could have made a difference in what could be the biggest political scandal in the nation’s history, that a man who was effectively a mentally impaired dementia patient was at least technically in charge of the United States of America.

Tapper, like the rest of the mainstream media, was an active participant in the “cover-up” that he now seeks to spin to his advantage, parlaying the book into millions of dollars and the repair of his own tarnished reputation and he evidently has decided that the task requires a professional PR guru to assist with the heavy lifting.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald, who recently described Tapper’s promotion of his book as the “most brazenly fraudulent scam,” remarked on the CNN propagandist’s hiring of the firm, stating that it’s been working to get outlets to attack him in order to discredit him as a critic.

Other X users also weighed in on the typically slimy move by Tapper as he tries to distance himself from the gaslighting of America that there was nothing wrong with Biden and that his critics were conspiracy theorists passing around “cheap fakes,” the term concocted to suggest that videos of the ex-president’s senior moments were doctored.

“I actually feel sorry for anyone who has to clean up Jake Tapper’s mess and try to defend his reputation. Hope the money is good because that’s very hard and thankless work,” Greenwald quipped in another post to X.

“Original Sin” hits bookshelves on Tuesday and the media B.S. to portray themselves as real journalists will be intense, with Tapper as the most energetic shoveler.
