Jonathan Swan works at Axiom, a digital news source established by Jim VandeHei, Mike Allen, and Roy Schwartz. His career accomplishment is harmoniously complemented by his marital life. Swan is married to Politico reporter Betsy Woodruff, with whom he has a beautiful kid.
Jonathan Swan’s Age and Profession
Swan, who was born on August 7, 1985, follows in the footsteps of his world-famous journalist father, Norman Swan. The Sydney native pursued a career in journalism, beginning as a political journalist for the Sydney Morning Herald. He was forthright in his reporting of LGBT rights news. On January 16, 2013, he published an essay in which he described how Australia enacted legislation that will encourage discrimination against the LGBT population. Later, he relocated to America and began reporting politics. In 2014, he was awarded a yearlong fellowship by the American Political Science Association.
He began his career in the United States with The Hill, a digital media organization. He made a name for himself as a financial reporter during the presidential campaign. Politico called him one of the 16 breakthrough media stars of the 2016 U.S. Presidential election. He then quit the media business to join Axiom. He concentrated on Trump’s administration and Republican congressional leaders. Swan rose to prominence after being the first to disclose the United States’ withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement in 2017. He was also the first to report on Trump’s intention to declare Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Keeping up with his demanding duties, he covered Oval Office talks to report on power conflicts in the White House. Anthony Scaramucci’s appointment as communications director was also reported by the 35-year-old.
