Bloomberg TV hires Gura from “Marketplace”

Claudia Milne, head of Bloomberg Television in the United States, sent the following Thursday to the newsroom:

I have some great news! David Gura will be taking the leap and leaving Marketplace to join Bloomberg TV as a reporter next month. David will be based in New York.
David joins us from Marketplace, where he is a senior reporter and the show’s primary substitute host. During his tenure at Marketplace, David reported on the economic recovery and he spent a lot of time talking to Americans in places that were electorally and economically unique ahead of the 2012 and 2014 elections.
David also worked at NPR as an editor and producer, and also reported for The Two-Way, its breaking news blog. He regularly contributed to NPR’s flagship news magazines, All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and Weekend Edition.
We’re thrilled that David has decided to join our team. Please join me in welcoming him to Bloomberg.
