Byron York joins Examiner as chief political correspondent
Examiner Staff Writer 2/2/09
Byron York, currently White House correspondent for National Review magazine and National Review Online, is joining The Washington Examiner as chief political correspondent.
York will write a column twice a week for The Examiner's new Politics page, and will contribute daily to ExaminerPolitics.com on the newspaper's Web site.
"Byron is one of the leading political analysts in journalism," said Stephen G. Smith, editor of The Washington Examiner. "He's quick to spot big stories, he digs deep in his reporting, and he writes with great clarity and insight."
"He is a prototype of the modern journalist, equally at home in print, on television, and on the Web," Smith said. "As readers of NRO know, Byron is nearly ubiquitous online. He will be a key contributor as we upgrade our Web site."
York, who starts at The Examiner next Monday, wrote in a post on NRO today that the decision to switch homes was "extremely difficult.”
"I'm leaving because The Examiner has given me a great opportunity to play a key role in the start of something new," he said. "They're ramping up their coverage of politics in this new era, and I hope that in the future, in addition to your regular visits here to NRO, you'll stop by the (soon to be new-and-improved) ExaminerPolitics.com, where my writing and reporting will appear daily."
