Media Movers: KFF Health News’ Alex Wayne
If our health is a gift, Alex Wayne’s new job might have come with a giant bow.

In his time at Dow Jones, CNET and now Cord Cutters News, Roger Cheng has made a name for himself by interviewing the people who have literally reshaped every facet of our daily lives. That’s something that not a lot of journalists can say. Roger — who won a Best in Business award in 2011 for […]
Media Movers: CNN Business’ Paul Glader
For years, I thought that once you left daily journalism, you were done. But I’m starting to rethink that.
