This reporter will cover the debates brewing among regulatory agencies, Congress, the White House and tech companies pushing to shape the rules of the road. You’ll develop a particular focus on debates around online content and speech, pursuing scoops in key topics including the push to revamp Section 230, allegations of bias in social media and tech giants’ actions to curb controversial content on their platforms. You’ll dig into the tug-of-war between industry and Washington over how to handle misinformation and extremist messaging, along with algorithmic bias and rules for targeted advertising. As these issues cross borders, you’ll also look at how other countries are setting their own rules around content and what that could portend in the U.S.
You’ll join a team of enterprising and hard-charging tech reporters driving the conversations in Washington around antitrust, artificial intelligence, data privacy, telecom, broadband and corporate influence. Your work will appear across all POLITICO platforms, politico.com, newsletters and POLITICO Pro.
The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of the tech sector and a track record of chronicling the forces shaping its future in Washington and beyond. The role requires an ability to deliver sharp reporting and engaging writing for an audience of influential readers in tech centers and political capitals in the U.S. and around the world.
