After more than a year, he was promoted to his current post of associate editor for multimedia where he managed multimedia content across the publication’s portfolio.
He tweets:
“I was laid off today from Defense News after 2 months of being furloughed. I’m sad that my time with the company has ended in this way. But–all is not lost. I’ll be reporting to active duty in the USAF sometime later this summer and can’t wait.”
Prior to joining Defense News, Martin was a legislative research intern at Capitol Strategies Partners LLC. Before that, he was a promotions intern at NBC Washington and also served as a news source intern at CNN.
