Townhall's New Congressional Correspondent

Congrats to my former Human Events colleague Amanda Carpenter, who is moving to Townhall.com to becoming the conservative website’s Capitol Hill correspondent, a similar position to the job she’s held at Human Events since August 2005. I was instrumental in hiring Carpenter as assistant editor, and she’s not disappointed. In her time at Human Events, the 24-year-old Carpenter has broken several stories mainstream journalists have ignored and even found the time to write a book about Hillary Clinton.
