#25: Stephanie Ruhle
Stephanie Ruhle is a contradiction in motion: respected for her expertise, yet caught in the crosshairs of public skepticism. With a 17% high-trust rating, she occupies a curious spot—both applauded and doubted.
Before her role as senior business correspondent at NBC News, she made waves at Bloomberg, notably breaking the “London Whale” story that rocked JPMorgan Chase in 2012. Fiercely articulate and sharp-witted, Ruhle doesn’t shy away from complexity or confrontation.
