Suzanne Sataline, the hospitals reporter at the Wall Street Journal, is leaving the paper.
In an e-mail to the staff on Thursday afternoon, Sataline wrote, “After five years and three beats – most memorably, under the guidance and fellowship of the hallowed Boston bureau — I’m leaving the Journal. I have enormous respect for the work you do. It’s been a pleasure working with so many talented people, especially the reporters who generously shared their time, knowledge and advice through the years. I will miss you.”
Sataline joined the Journal in January 2005. She previously was a national news reporter based in New York and the paper’s national religion reporter, detailing how religion shaped the 2008 presidential race. She also covered Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
Previously, Sataline worked as a correspondent for the Boston Globe and as a staff writer for the Philadelphia Inquirer, the New York Daily News and the Hartford Courant.
She graduated from Syracuse University in 1985, where she was the managing editor of the student newspaper. Sataline was a Nieman Fellow in 1998-99.
