Naomi Biden, President Joe Biden's granddaughter, has publicly criticized a new book by CNN's Jake Tapper and Axios's Alex Thompson, which alleges a cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline.
She called the book 'political fairy smut' and accused the authors of being irresponsible and self-promoting. The backlash is notable for coming from within Biden's own family and from the political left, rather than just his critics on the right. The controversy erupted just after President Biden announced a cancer diagnosis, adding to the sensitivity of the issue.
The dispute highlights ongoing tensions over media coverage of Biden's health and the political motivations behind such reporting.
