Some happy news! After 8 years at @washingtonpost.com as a reporter and editor, I am excited to join @propublica.org as a senior editor collaborating with local news outlets on investigative projects. Basically, my dream job. I will miss my Post peeps deeply. www.propublica.org/atpropublica...

@propublica.org journalism is a public service. We don’t have an owner or a corporate parent. We don’t rely on any gov't $. We are 100% independent. Our reporters chase down evidence of wrongdoing & expose what’s happening behind the scenes so that the facts can lead to real change. Support us!
