I’m a Senior Staff Writer at Defense News where I cover national security, including the State Department, defense industry and cyber warfare.  Before joining Defense News I spent time at War News Radio, covering the war in Iraq, and at Talking Points Memo, where I was part of the team that covered the U.S. Attorneys dismissal scandal.  I received my master’s degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

This blog is a place for me to publish pieces on the State Department that won’t otherwise make it into Defense News, to post some of my articles that do, and to comment on pieces I find interesting.

Thanks for stopping by,

Zach
