Bloomberg’s Nichols joining NBC News

Hans Nichols, an international correspondent for Bloomberg News, is joining NBC News to cover the Pentagon, writes Kelsey Sutton of Politico.

Sutton writes, “Nichols is currently an international correspondent at Bloomberg and was previously the business channel’s White House correspondent. He will serve as a Washington, D.C.-based correspondent for NBC News beginning June 13, the network announced Friday. He’ll assume Miklaszewski’s high-profile beat in December.

“‘Hans’ addition to the bureau offers a valuable six months for him to contribute to the bureau’s significant role in network coverage and to work with Mik as a colleague before transitioning to the Pentagon beat upon Mik’s retirement,’ NBC News Washington bureau chief Ken Strickland said in the memo announcing the hire.
