Brenner, Medford Are New Metropolitan Editors

I am delighted to announce that R.B. Brenner and Lynn Medford will be promoted to positions as Metropolitan Editor of The Washington Post. This means Metro will now have two deputies, in reflection of its standing as the newsroom’s largest section. They jointly succeed Keith Harriston, following his move to become Metro Law Enforcement Editor.

R.B. is currently Maryland Editor, and Lynn is Deputy Metropolitan Editor. While they will both be deputy assistant managing editors, they will specialize in different areas and duties.
