In this episode of 1050 Bascom, we were thrilled to interview Tom Beaumont, Senior National Political Correspondent for the Washington desk of The Associated Press. Tom earned a BA in Political Science from UW-Madison in 1989 as well as a MA from the J-School in 1993. In his career, Tom has covered six presidential campaigns, including the past four as a national correspondent for the AP. We had a wide ranging and fun conversation with Tom about his career path as well as his experiences and insights covering the last several presidential elections.
