About James Westhead
- 2 Oct 06, 09:45 AM
I've been based in Washington, reporting on the US for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ, since November 2005. I'm the late reporter here in the bureau, so I'm responsible for overnight coverage on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service radio, World TV, and the UK TV and radio morning programmes.
My previous role was in London, where I was the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's education and family correspondent for the One & Six O'Clock News programmes. Before that, I specialised as a health correspondent, working first for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ regional TV in London and then for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ News 24 when it launched in 1997.
I started my broadcasting career as a reporter with Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Kent in 1990.
James Westhead is a Washington correspondent for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ News.
