Reporter Emily Miller Leaving WTTG Washington

Fox O&O WTTG Washington announced today that chief investigative reporter Emily Miller is leaving the station.

In a statement, WTTG GM Patrick Paolini said: “Unfortunately, Emily has decided to move on at the end of her two-year contract, Emily brought original reporting, got real results from her investigations and demonstrated exemplary coverage of the Baltimore Riots. We wish her the best in the future.”

Miller said: “It was truly a rewarding experience to work at Fox 5 because local TV news is unique and because it let me directly help people who felt they have no one to fight for them. It showed me clearly why the fourth estate is so important in our country.”

Miller joined WTTG in 2014 after serving as senior editor of the Washington Times’ opinion pages. Her other journalism experience includes being senior editor of Human Events and a columnist for AOL’s Politics Daily. She worked in the Washington news bureaus of ABC News as the associate producer for This Week and Good Morning America. Her first job out of college was a desk assistant in the Washington bureau of NBC News.

In addition, Miller was deputy press secretary at the U.S. Department of State during President George W. Bush’s administration.
