He will start in March. His last day at The Journal was Wednesday.
Albergotti joined The Journal’s New York bureau in 2003. He helped launch the paper’s sports department in 2008, where he focused on investigative stories and features.
In May 2010, Albergotti uncovered emails sent to cycling officials and sponsors by a former teammate of Lance Armstrong’s that revealed the complex doping program on the U.S. Postal Service cycling team. He broke the news with colleague Vanessa O’Connell and covered the ensuing scandal and federal criminal investigation for three years.
He is the co-author of the bestselling book “Wheelmen: Lance Armstrong, the Tour de France and the Greatest Sports Conspiracy Ever.”
From February 2012 to October 2013, he covered white collar crime for The Journal.
Albergotti also has produced several popular online videos for The Journal, including “The Olympics: How Hard Can it Be?,” a series that was shown in national TV broadcasts and at NHL games.
