Mary Katharine Ham joins The Washington Examiner as online editor

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) --- Townhall.com managing editor and regular Fox News guest Mary Katharine Ham is joining The Washington Examiner as online editor for the publication's forthcoming new web site, dcexaminer.com, the newspaper announced today.

As online editor of dcexaminer.com, Ham will be responsible for overall management of the site's news and editorial content and staff, as well as working with Examiner and outside resources on creative development of new features and functionality. She will work from the Examiner's downtown Washington, D.C. newsroom and will start June 10.

"We are especially excited and proud to have Mary Katharine Ham join The Washington Examiner because she among the most respected young stars of online journalism and is also well-known to cable television and talk radio audiences through her regular appearances on 'The O'Reilly Factor' on Fox News," said Vivienne Sosnowski, editorial director of Clarity Media, which publishes The Washington Examiner, The Baltimore Examiner and The San Francisco Examiner, as well as the Examiner.com web site.

"Her hiring demonstrates again our commitment to building a great news and information company that excels in three channels, including newspapers, online and video," Sosnowski said.

Prior to joining Townhall.com as an editor in 2005, Ham was an online editor for The Heritage Foundation think tank. Before that, she was a sports reporter and features writer for a North Carolina daily, winning two awards for excellence for features and sports columns from the North Carolina Press Association.

She is a 2002 graduate of the University of Georgia with a degree in journalism. Ham grew up in a newspaper family, as her father was managing editor of the Durham Herald-Sun for 13 years and four as director of digital publishing. He is now vice-president for communications of the John Locke Foundation in Raleigh, NC.
