Former ESPN NFL reporter Ed Welder touted CNN broadcaster Jake Tupper when he touted his new book, “Original Singh: The Decline, Cover-up and the Disastrous Choice of Running Again,” and acknowledged “humility” in a report by former President Joe Biden.
Tupper and co-author Alex Thompson have been criticised for covering up the former president's decline while he was in office. Tupper has been on multiple shows acknowledging their failures on how Biden's health reports were made.

Werder, a longtime ESPN journalist, offered two cents in a post Wednesday.
“He sold his credibility as a journalist for access to power, and now I hope he will benefit from the audience who lied to him,” Wälder writes to X.
Welder was far from the only journalists and critics who called out the press.
John Stewart, God Charlamagne Tar, and “The Scenery” hosted Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg, informing them of their feelings about all the books and the coverage around them. While some had old CNN to promote it, some “viewing” experts wondered whether Tupper would write a book about President Donald Trump's decline.

“Just read a copy of this silly book, and if anyone is curious for a review from someone who lived it first-hand: this book is political fairy smut for the permanent, professional chattering class. The ones who rarely enter the arena, but profit from the spectacle of those that do. Put simply, it amounts to a bunch of unoriginal, unspired lies written by irresponsible self promoting journalists out to make a quick buck,” she writes.
