I am excited to announce Hadas Gold will join CNN as a reporter focused on European politics, media, and global business.
Hadas joins us after a spectacular run of more than five years at Politico.
Alex Koppelman will edit Hadas in what is a collaborative new beat for her and us – and her work will appear across CNN Politics, CNNMoney, and CNN writ-large.
