Howard Goller, an editor in Washington for Reuters, send out the following staff change announcement on Thursday:
After two successful years as our Justice Department correspondent, Dave Ingram is moving to New York effective April 7. He will remain with the Reuters legal team, covering antitrust and collaborating with colleagues on legal affairs coverage for a wide audience. Dave joined Reuters in Washington as lobby and law correspondent in 2011. He will go on reporting to Howard Goller.
Stepping into the Justice Department role is graduate trainee Julia Edwards, who has covered the White House and Congress for National Journal and spent the first part of her trainee assignment working for Reuters in New York covering financial markets and legal affairs. She takes over the Justice Department beat on April 4 and will report to Caren Bohan, as will financial crimes correspondent Aruna Viswanatha, who will take on a more enhanced role covering criminal law enforcement.
We congratulate Dave on his new assignment and welcome Julia to hers and expect our teams to go on working closely together.
