Reader support helps sustain our work. Donate today to keep our climate news free. All donations DOUBLED!

Grist’s political reporter will combine the best of the old and new media. From the old media: a dedication to accuracy, double-checking facts, and good old-fashioned shoe-leather tenacity. From the new media: a strong voice and perspective, a willingness to buck conventional wisdom, an aptitude with multimedia formats, and a wizardly mastery of internet data mining. We want to break news and make noise; this reporter’s byline will be out in front of that effort.

Grist thanks its sponsors. Become one.
