It would appear as if one of the reporters behind the legendary Washington Posts uncovering of Watergate is set to take on a more robust role with CNN, the cable net where he has been serving as an occasional contributor.
CNNs Senior Reporter for Media & Politics Dylan Byers Tweeted shortly ago that Carl Bernstein, as well as Andrew Kaczynski, Scott Glover, and Drew Griffin, would be joining the expanded investigative effort under Lex Harris, CNN Moneys executive editor.
Byers emails:
We are also pleased to announce the addition of two contributing editors: Pulitzer Prize winner Carl Bernstein, who has played an important role in CNNs most recent coverage of Trump and Russia, and James B. Steele, the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes for investigative reporting with Donald L. Barlett.
Bernstein recently co-bylined CNNs reporting that high level intelligence officials brief both Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump on the contents of compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump in Kremlin possession (Buzzfeed later let the full cat out of the bag, of course).
