Byron York

By Byron York

Byron York, chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner, provides conservative commentary once a week for Newspaper Enterprise Association. Previously the White House correspondent for National Review, and a frequent guest on political talk shows, York is a columnist respected for his reporting skills, fine writing, and analytical approach.

"My column is a reporting-based column, coming from Washington, with the latest from capital insiders but also with a sense of life outside the Beltway bubble," says York, who is originally from Alabama. "To me, reporting is the key; I've never assumed people were interested simply in finding out what I think. When they read my column, they want to find something out, something they aren't able to read anywhere else."
