The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press has announced Eric Feder as its Local Legal Initiative director, where he will oversee the growing program that provides local news organizations the free legal support they need to pursue enterprise and investigative reporting in their communities. Feder joins the Reporters Committee after nearly 13 years at the law firm Davis Wright Tremaine, where he was most recently a partner focused on media, intellectual property, and commercial litigation.
“We are thrilled to welcome Eric to the Reporters Committee and the Local Legal Initiative,” said Reporters Committee Vice President of Legal Programs Lisa Zycherman. “His experience protecting journalists’ legal rights makes him an excellent fit to lead this powerhouse team of local attorneys dedicated to delivering legal resources to newsrooms that need them most.”
