Alister Bull, who has spent most of the past nine years covering the Federal Reserve Board and the economy for Reuters, is leaving the news organization, his co-workers have confirmed.
Bull has not yet written a farewell note and does not have any post-Reuters plans, those co-workers stated. Along with the Federal Reserve, Bull covered the White House and the Treasury and the Iraq War. He has a deep knowledge of macroeconomic policy.
“I will stay in Washington and plan to keep working on macro economic and monetary policy issues,” said Bull in an email to Talking Biz News on Monday afternoon.
His departure, part of the job cutting at Reuters announced earlier this year, will leave the news organization without a full-time reporter covering the Fed. Its other Fed reporter, Pedro Da Costa, left last month for The Wall Street Journal.
Bull previously reported for Reuters from Germany, South Africa, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Iraq and has been with the news organization since April 1987.
In this February 2011 press conference about Egypt, President Obama called on Bull first.
