Philip Wegmann

”Steamboat bet on me toward the beginning of my career, right when I was thinking of leaving journalism. It is my sincere hope, and an ongoing personal project all these years later, that I live up to that confidence and their incredible kindness.”

Philip Wegmann is White House Correspondent
for Real Clear Politics. He previously wrote for The
Washington Examiner and has done investigative
reporting on congressional corruption and institutional
malfeasance.

In addition, Wegmann has worked as a radio producer
and congressional correspondent. He can be seen
regularly on CNN, Fox, and Fox Business and his voice
has been heard on the BBC, NPR, and numerous other
radio outlets. Wegmann was a fellow of the America’s
Future Foundation writing program, a Publius fellow of
the Claremont Institute, and an Eagle Scout.

Before journalism, Wegmann grew up in little
Woodburn, Indiana then graduated from even smaller
Hillsdale College with degrees in History and Politics.
When the weather is nice, and sometimes even when it
isn’t, he can be found weaving in-and-out of traffic on
his beloved Honda, a beautiful 1981 CB750 motorcycle.
