I’m pleased to announce that Chris Kahn has come aboard as our Polling Editor, based in New York. In his role, Chris will oversee our polling for everything from politics to company news, coordinating among editors, reporters and IPSOS. He will report to the U.S. Elections Editor.
Chris spent the past 16 years at various news organizations including the Associated Press, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel and Bankrate.com. He has undergraduate degrees in physics and anthropology from the University of Arizona and a master’s degree in journalism with a specialty in data reporting from Arizona State University.
At the AP, Chris worked out of bureaus in Phoenix and Roanoke, Va., where he covered a variety of beats including breaking news, federal courts, politics, agriculture and sports. He later moved to AP’s New York headquarters to cover the petroleum industry and energy commodities. He spent the past three years as Bankrate’s Research and Statistics Editor, where he supervised its monthly Financial Security Index and other consumer surveys. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife Stephanie.
Please join me in welcoming Chris to Reuters.
