I asked @CNNPR for more details on this. @WhigNewtons will report to political director @DavidChalian. She's joining a group of several political editors who coordinate coverage, which entails managing teams in the field / sending out news alerts internally / etc.https://twitter.com/politico/status/1097914216579768326 …

Perhaps I'm mistaken. But I thought this person was directing the political coverage? I think that's the problem. I'd hope no one who has been working directly for the parties/candidates would ever direct political coverage.
-
please see my earlier tweet. she will have one of many seats at the table, reporting up to the political director.

“Newsrooms” used to be populated with “journalists.” Journalists reported the news...without editorial spin. It’s a quaint notion...apparently entirely absent from television “news” programs today.

Wait. No one is disputing that political operatives join newsrooms, man. That is obviously true! What's unusual and disturbing here is a partisan operative (with zero journalism experience) joining a newsroom in a **top editorial role.**

For example, Republican comms operative Caitlin Conant joined CBS as a comms exec. And then she worked her way to an editorial role. See the difference?
