Every two years, The Fix issues a list of the best state political reporters – a beat comprised of arguably the most under-appreciated reporters in the political world. They rarely get the attention of their colleagues at the national level but are often covering the very politicians and national trends that come to impact the broad political landscape. However, their coverage of state and local politics is central to a functioning democracy – and a select few are making waves nationally for their acclaimed writing.

Here’s a glimpse of the statehouse reporters who received praise from our Hoosier press corps:

• Ed Feigenbaum, Indiana Legislative Insight
• Katie Heinz, RTV6
• Brian Howey, Howey Politics Indiana
• Tom LoBianco, Indianapolis Star
• Rafael Sanchez, RTV-6
• Jim Shella, WISH-TV
