Matthew Colin Taibbi[3] (/taɪˈiːbi/; born March 2, 1970) is an American author, journalist, and podcaster. He has reported on finance, media, politics, and sports. A former contributing editor for Rolling Stone, he is the author of several books, former co-host of the Useful Idiots podcast, and publisher of the Racket News (formerly TK News) on Substack.
Taibbi began as a freelance reporter working in the former Soviet Union. He later worked as a sports journalist for the English-language newspaper The Moscow Times. In 1997, Taibbi and Mark Ames co-edited the tabloid newspaper The eXile. In 2002, Taibbi returned to the United States and founded the Buffalo-based newspaper The Beast. He left a year later to work as a columnist for the New York Press.[4][5]
In 2004, Taibbi began covering politics for Rolling Stone.[5] In 2008, Taibbi won a National Magazine Award for three columns he wrote for Rolling Stone.[6] Taibbi became known for his brazen style, having branded Goldman Sachs a "vampire squid" in a 2009 article.[7][8] His work often has drawn comparisons to the gonzo journalism of writer Hunter S. Thompson, who also covered politics for Rolling Stone.[1][9][10][11][12] In 2019, he launched the podcast Useful Idiots, co-hosted by Katie Halper. In 2020, he announced that he would no longer release his writing through Rolling Stone and had begun self-publishing his online writing on Substack.[13] In recent years, Taibbi's writing has focused on culture war issues and cancel culture. He has criticized mainstream media including its coverage of Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.[14] In 2022–23, Taibbi released several installments of the Twitter Files.
Taibbi has authored several books, including The Great Derangement (2009); Griftopia (2010); The Divide (2014);[15] Insane Clown President (2017); I Can't Breathe (2017); and Hate Inc. (2019).
