Hollywood Reporter’s Barr hired by Washington Post

We are delighted to tell you that Jeremy Barr, a senior media writer at The Hollywood Reporter, will be joining Features as a breaking news reporter.

Jeremy will jump on the day’s top media news, a broad — and polarizing — coverage area that fascinates readers and is especially important in an election year.

This beat represents an expansion of The Post’s already strong media team, and we can think of no one more qualified than Jeremy, who has covered the media industry for Politico New York, Advertising Age, and most recently at The Hollywood Reporter, where he’s been for the last three years.
