NBC News Digital has recently announced the appointment of Alex Wollner as the new Deputy Politics Editor. This move comes as part of the company’s efforts to strengthen its political coverage and expand its digital presence.
Wollner, who previously served as the Senior Politics Editor at NBC News, will now work closely with the Politics Editor, Carrie Dann, to oversee the digital team’s political reporting and analysis. In his new role, he will also be responsible for developing and executing digital strategies to engage and inform audiences across all NBC News platforms.
Wollner brings a wealth of experience to his new position, having worked at NBC News for over six years. During his time at the company, he has played a crucial role in covering major political events such as the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections, as well as the impeachment trials of both President Trump and President Biden.
In a statement, NBC News Digital’s Editor-in-Chief, Catherine Kim, expressed her excitement about Wollner’s new role, saying, “Alex has been an integral part of our political coverage, and we are thrilled to have him take on this new position. His expertise and leadership will be invaluable as we continue to deliver comprehensive and insightful political reporting to our audience.”
Wollner’s promotion also comes at a crucial time for NBC News Digital, as the company looks to expand its digital presence and attract a wider audience. With his strong background in political journalism and digital media, Wollner is well-equipped to help the company achieve its goals.
In addition to his work at NBC News, Wollner has also held positions at other major news organizations, including CNN and ABC News. He has covered a wide range of political topics, from breaking news to in-depth analysis, and has received numerous accolades for his work.
Wollner’s appointment is just one of many recent changes at NBC News Digital. The company has also recently announced the hiring of several new reporters and editors, as well as the launch of new digital initiatives, such as the “Meet the Press” podcast and the “Decision 2022” newsletter.
With Wollner’s leadership and the company’s continued efforts to innovate and expand, NBC News Digital is well-positioned to remain a top source for political news and analysis in the digital space.
