Schmidt to WSJ

We hear that the Washington Post’s Susan Schmidt, has taken the paper’s buyout and is joining the Wall Street Journal as an investigative reporter.

Schmidt is an investigative reporter on The Post’s National staff and has been with the paper since 1983. She won the Pulitzer Prize (along with others) in 2006 for uncovering the Abramoff scandal. She also won it in 2002 (along with others) for her coverage of terrorism.

Sue starts at the WSJ later this month.
