The New Yorker Radio Hour
Kaitlan Collins Is Not “Nasty”; She’s Just Doing Her Job

reported on and experienced since then and grown so much as a reporter is remarkable to look at. And it's around this time, eight years ago, that I got my job at CNN.

And so that was actually really helpful to me because when I started covering Trump, I had just a better understanding of that orbit around him and the people that were surrounding themselves with him now and what that looked like. And it actually has been really beneficial to me, I think, as I've been covering him for the last eight years. Yeah.

He worked at Fox, but he didn't have a primetime show and wasn't the king of cable as he became and had TV that the White House felt was must-see television because whatever he was talking about that night in his monologue, Trump would likely be talking about the next day.
