John Hendel, Tech Reporter

I’m a longtime tech reporter living in Washington, D.C. working for POLITICO’s tech policy reporting team.

My coverage focuses on the changing rules around telecom and media policy and follows the dynamics on Capitol Hill and in the administration, with a special eye toward the Federal Communications Commission. 

Before POLITICO, I spent five years honing my telecommunications policy knowledge at Communications Daily, an award-winning trade publication.

I’m a native St. Louisan who earned a Master’s degree in journalism as well as bachelor’s degrees in magazine journalism and history from the University of Missouri.
