The New York Times' White House correspondent Maggie Haberman is equally one of the most famous, most respected, and most reviled political journalists in America. Jennifer Palmieri, host of "Just Something About Her" and former Head of Communications for the Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign and Obama White House, has known Maggie for years, since Maggie was the City Hall reporter for the New York Post.

Jennifer asks Maggie about the accusation that she is an "access journalist," how she balances work with parenthood, and what objectivity means in the Trump era. Jennifer and Maggie share how gender has played a role in their careers, and in the unending criticism Maggie receives.

In the first episode of “Just Something About Her,” our host Jennifer Palmieri speaks to writer and activist Charlotte Clymer about navigating her past and present as a trans woman who grew up in Texas, joined the military, and eventually went on to be a widely published writer with a controversial Twitter presence.

Jennifer Palmieri is the former Communications Director for the Obama White House and Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. She uses her communications expertise to illuminate underlying messages – and often unconscious biases – in the way women are spoken about, treated, and often view themselves.

Charlotte and Jennifer discuss the quid pro quo Charlotte faces as a trans woman with self-described “practical politics” and how there is currently no playbook for trans women facing discrimination. Charlotte also addresses criticism she faced as leader of a women’s equality Facebook group before coming out.
