Political media veterans have launched 50statesofblue.com, a new website serving as a hub for national and local news covering progressive politics from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
“We have reached a moment when there are more local stories with national implications than ever,” founding Editor-in-Chief Howard Megdal stated, explaining, “We will provide a conduit to these issues, stakeholders and movements through our passionate, intellectually honest pursuit of the stories that matter.”
Megdal, a veteran journalist who has covered politics for The New York Times, Salon and PoliticoNew York, leads a team of journalists with experience and passion for covering progressive politics.
