Former Washington Post opinion columnist Catherine Rampell is joining The Bulwark, where she will write a weekly economics and policy-focused newsletter, reports Max Tani of Semafor.
Tani writes, ” In a telephone interview on Friday, Rampell said that although she had spent her career at traditional media institutions like The New York Times and the Post, she was encouraged by The Bulwark’s growth and felt committed to its editorial mission, which emphasizes supporting America’s democratic principles and institutions.
“‘It’s very mission-oriented as an institution, and within that mission, there’s obviously room for a lot of other views,’ Rampell said. ‘All of those things were appealing, and it’s a pretty kickass group of people.’
“‘The Bulwark is a written, video, and audio product. And as we grow, we are looking for people who can excel across all those mediums,’ CEO Sarah Longwell said in a statement. ‘Catherine is not just one of those people — she’s one of the best of those people. She also brings a unique expertise in economics and a mission aligned worldview. We’re beyond thrilled she’s decided to join us.'”
