On May 6, Washington Post Television will go live with continuous coverage of King Charles III’s coronation, anchored by Washington Post Senior News Anchor Libby Casey in London, alongside Washington Post Senior Correspondent Rhonda Colvin and Contributing Royal Correspondent Sarah Hewson. Washington Post Editorial Writer and Columnist James Hohmann will report from outside of Buckingham Palace, giving the latest on-the-ground updates on this historic day.
“We are thrilled to introduce The Post’s journalism on a service that has such incredible reach.
