American cable news channel MSNBC has appointed veteran journalist Sudeep Reddy as its first-ever Washington Bureau Chief.
Reddy, currently senior managing editor at Politico, will assume his new role on June 16. He will be responsible for building and leading MSNBC’s Washington, D.C.-based newsgathering operation.

His appointment comes as MSNBC prepares to separate from its parent company, NBCUniversal and Comcast, later this year. The newly established bureau will be housed in the Hall of States building, which also hosts NBC News. However, MSNBC emphasized that its operations will function independently from the broadcast news outlet.
“Sudeep will be charged with leading MSNBC’s D.C.-based newsgathering operation, including building a team of reporters to cover every corner of the nation’s capital,” the network said in a statement on social media.
Reddy brings more than two decades of journalism experience. At Politico, he oversaw a team of 150 journalists and launched numerous editorial products, including newsletters, podcasts, live events, and other digital offerings. He also guided strategy and operations for Politico Playbook during the first Trump administration and led the creation of the outlet’s first audio team.
Prior to Politico, Reddy spent a decade at The Wall Street Journal’s Washington bureau, serving as economics editor and directing coverage of U.S. and international economic news. His reporting has received multiple honors, including recognition from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers and the National Press Foundation’s Thomas L. Stokes Award for Best Energy Writing.
In addition to his editorial work, Reddy has contributed to American Public Media’s Marketplace for the past 15 years. He also serves on the boards of the National Press Foundation and the International Center for Journalists.
MSNBC’s senior vice president of newsgathering, Scott Matthews, said the network plans to hire more than 100 journalists as it expands its editorial footprint in Washington. The new team will include correspondents assigned to cover major institutions such as the White House, Capitol Hill, the State Department, the Justice Department, and the Supreme Court.
