Travis Waldron Joins HuffPost's DC Bureau as Sports Reporter

Waldron covered the intersection between sports and politics/culture for ThinkProgress.

Travis Waldron, a sports reporter for ThinkProgress, has been hired by Huffington Post, according to a memo Wednesday morning from senior political reporter and politics managing editor, Amanda Terkel.

Waldron covered the intersection between sports and politics/culture for ThinkProgress, including a scathing piece on Daniel Snyder’s ongoing crusade to preserve the Washington Redskins’ nickname — regarded by many as a racial slur.

Below is the full memo from Terkel.

We’re excited to announce that Travis Waldron will be joining the DC bureau as a sports reporter on June 8.
