With some remarkable works, the journalist still had to be on the headlines saying "Take Salena Zito Neither Seriously Nor Literally On Trump Voters" for omitting and fabricating stories. Replying to the story, she said that she is not concerned with the victory or loss of Trump but is only concerned about her reputations as a journalist. She also clarified that she does not report what she wants to happen. Instead, she reports the facts that are happening.
