About the Author
Vox explains the news. The world is filled with too much information and too little context. Too much noise and too little insight. And so Vox's journalists candidly shepherd audiences through politics and policy, business and pop culture, food, science, and everything else that matters. Vox was launched at Vox Media in 2014 by founders Ezra Klein, Melissa Bell, and Matthew Yglesias. Vox's Saturday 15x15 crosswords are constructed by Patrick Blindauer, Adesina Koiki, Will Nediger, and Andrew J. Ries.
