Roll Call’s Newmyer to Fortune Magazine

This just in.

Roll Call‘s Tory Newmyer is leaving the publication for a job at Fortune magazine. The new gig is as a writer in the magazine’s DC bureau, covering the intersection of business and government.

Congratulations to Newmyer.

The goodbye party is scheduled for July 7 at Johnny’s Half-Shell.

The internal memo from Roll Call Editor Charlie Mitchell:

Folks,

I’m sad to announce that Tory Newmyer will be leaving us for a new gig with Fortune magazine.

Tory joined Roll Call in 2004 as part of the Lobbying team and joined the Leadership team as a House reporter in 2008.

He has excelled at breaking news, finding fresh angles on heavily covered stories and telling the narrative of the House Democratic leadership. His hallmark is the crisply written story that brings the reader inside leadership’s deliberations.

We’re planning a proper sendoff for Tory on Wednesday, July 7, at Johnny’s Half-Shell, so please join us there to wish him the best in his new endeavor. Tory’s last day at Roll Call will be July 9.
