A Note to Readers
After discovering a pattern of deception in the actions of a former staff reporter, we are publishing corrections to several stories and retracting one.
Betsy Reed
Betsy Reed was Editor-in-Chief of The Intercept from 2015 through mid-2022. During that time, The Intercept earned many prizes for its reporting, among them a George Polk Award, two National Magazine Awards, a Sidney Hillman Prize, a Scripps Howard Award, and an Edward R.
