20070210 The Examiner hires Pentagon Veteran journalist Rowan Scarborough


The Examiner hires Pentagon Veteran journalist Rowan Scarborough

Saturday, February 10th, 2007

The Examiner is reporting that it has hired veteran Pentagon journalist, Rowan Scarborough.

In an article written by Michael Neibauer on February 10th, 2007, the paper reports that Mr. Scarborough, “has covered national security since 1989 for The Washington Times” and written book about Donald Rumsfeld called Rumsfeld's War: The Untold Story of America's Anti-Terrorist Commander.

“Given the times we live in, our readers deserve timely and knowledgeable information about a broad range of national security issues,” said Stephen G. Smith, The Examiner’s executive editor. “As a Pentagon reporter for The Washington Times over the past 18 years, Rowan has distinguished himself as the best in the field.”

Before going to the Times, Scarborough worked for Defense Week, the Wilmington (Del.) News Journal and the Salisbury (Md.) Daily Times. He served in the Navy as a hospital corpsman, graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in journalism and completed a media fellowship at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution.

For news junkies and those specifically interested in cutting edge coverage of military issues, this is great news and will work well to round what many of us have come to understand as excellent – fair and accurate reporting of the news by The Examiner.
