Paula Reid Biography

Paula Reid is an American anchor and reporter working for CNN as a Chief Legal Affairs correspondent. She joined the CNN news team in March 2021, after previously working for CBC News.

Paula Reid Career

Reid went to New York City in January 2010 and got a job as an intern in the Investigative Unit at CBS News. In late 2010 (June), she got a job as a production secretary for CBS Evening News, which she kept for a year. Reid was a digital journalist working in New York from 2011 to 2014. For his job as a reporter for CBS News, Reid came to Washington, D.C., in 2014. Reid talked about the 2016 email scandal involving Hillary Clinton. She was one of the few reporters in Charlottesville, Virginia, during the Unite the Right protest, which led Governor Terry McAuliffe to declare a state of emergency.

The Special Counsel’s probe into Robert Mueller was led by Reid on CBS News. For a while in 2017, she also worked as a reporter at the White House. Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told the press at one of the White House meetings that Trump could fire Mueller if he wanted to. Reid said this was against the law: “You said the president thinks he has the power to fire Robert Mueller.” Most lawyers think that he would have to tell Rod Rosenstein, who is Deputy Attorney General, to fire Mueller, which Rosenstein could of course refuse to do. In 2018, Reid pushed Trump on his plans for the border. To do this, they had to show that, despite what Trump said, the Trump administration’s policy of separating families was different from those of earlier administrations because it charged everyone who came to the border.

Reid was named the CBS News White House Correspondent in April 2019, two years after starting to cover the story. Reid went to Trump’s daily press meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic. She asked why the Trump administration had taken so long to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic in April 2020. Reid specifically asked what kind of preparations Trump had made in the month after he put in place his travel ban on China. “What did you do during that time?” And you didn’t use it to get hospitals ready or to test more people. Nearly 20 million Americans are out of work right now, and tens of thousands are dead.

When asked about Reid’s tough questions by the New York Post in May 2020, President Trump said, “Nothing like Donna Reed, I can tell you that.” Reid has worked for the CBS Evening News, CBS This Morning, and Face the Nation. CBS announced in January 2021 that Reid would be moving from the White House to the network’s office in Washington, D.C. This was part of a change in the network’s White House and Congress reporters. Moreover, Reid announced in March 2021 that she was leaving CBS to become a senior legal affairs reporter on CNN. On October 16, 2023, she was made the top legal affairs correspondent.

Reid got her bachelor’s degree from the College of William & Mary in 2005. It was a double major in psychology and English. Moreover, Reid got his Juris Doctor from Villanova University School in 2008. It looks like Reid did well on his bar tests in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Reid also got his Master of Business Ethics (MBE) from the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Medical Ethics and Health Policy in 2016.

The little girl was in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for 12 days while her lungs finished growing. “Having a baby in the NICU is incredibly stressful and we are grateful for the care we received at the Children’s National Hospital NICU,” Reid told PEOPLE.

Jordan had so many tubes in her at the NICU that they were not able to hold her until she was a week, which was heart-wrenching. The doctors, nurses, facilities staff, experts, and so on.
