Full articleGloria Borger (born September 22, 1952) is an American journalist and political analyst recognized for her extensive career in covering national politics, most notably as CNN's chief political analyst from 2007 until her departure in December 2024. Borger, a graduate of Colgate University, launched her professional journey in 1976 at the Washington Star, progressing to roles such as political columnist at U.S. News & World Report and chief congressional correspondent at Newsweek. At CNN, she contributed regular commentary on programs including The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, offering explanations of Washington dynamics to a broad audience, though her work unfolded within mainstream media institutions frequently observed to exhibit systemic left-leaning biases in political coverage.
In brief
Gloria Borger learned Washington the old way: a magazine column, a Sunday show, a night desk that still believed in the second source. CBS and CNBC were stops; CNN became a seventeen-year home.
She specialized in the sentence that explains a vote without raising its voice. When she left the daily chair, the city lost one of its more careful translators.
