The Atlantic has recently come under scrutiny for a controversial report about former President Trump, which critics have labeled as false or a hit piece. The publication is majority-owned by billionaire philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, widow of Apple's Steve Jobs. Powell Jobs shares a close friendship with Vice President Kamala Harris, with whom she has a shared political philosophy and interest in art and culture.
Powell Jobs has been a significant supporter of Harris, contributing millions to organizations backing the vice president and playing a key role in Harris' political career. The two women have been described as having a genuine friendship, often traveling together and attending personal events.
