The National Press Foundation has selected 20 journalists for the 2024 class of its prestigious Paul Miller Washington Reporting Fellowship, which has helped rising reporters navigate the complex landscape of Washington, D.C., for 35 years.
The class represents local and national news outlets, spanning print, digital, radio and television mediums.
In monthly sessions, fellows learn what it takes to cover the White House, Supreme Court, Capitol, Pentagon, Justice Department and other key government institutions.
Lawmakers, analysts and the top journalists in the business will lead discussions on policy, politics and best practices in reporting designed to help fellows thrive on their demanding beats. Equally important: it is an opportunity to network with colleagues to grow personally and professionally.
