Executive Action At NPR
Calamur continued, “Megan will take the lead on our coverage of voters and elections, working with our political reporters as they travel the country digging into what’s driving Americans’ political behavior, as well as reporting on candidates and campaigns. Megan will also work with member station political reporters who are covering congressional and presidential politics in their own backyards. We want to thank Ben Swasey, who has carried this mantle in the interim while also taking on his critical new role leading our voting team.”
And there’s more: Calamur also announced that longtime NPR Congressional Correspondent Sue Davis has been upped to NPR Political Correspondent, while Deirdre Walsh, who has served as acting Congressional Correspondent for several months, has been elevated to “official.”
