The Los Angeles Times has promoted Phil Willon to assistant editor to oversee coverage of the California Capitol and state politics.
An excerpt from the announcement reads:
For the last six months, he has served as the interim Sacramento bureau chief/California politics editor, overseeing the newsroom’s coverage of Gov. Gavin Newsom, the state Legislature and California’s 2022 election.
He has covered Newsom for six years, first as a gubernatorial candidate and then as California’s chief executive. Willon helped chronicle Newsom’s struggles addressing the COVID-19 pandemic and a recall attempt, as well as his responses to a string of natural disasters and a recalcitrant Donald Trump.
