December 17, 2024 (press release) –
Joel Eastwood will join the team in January as a graphics/multimedia editor focused on front-end development based in New York. He comes from the investigative tech newsroom The Markup, where he worked as a visualizations engineer designing charts and building digital tools.
As a journalist and coder, Joel has mapped inequities in internet speeds across American cities, analyzed how crime prediction software targets Black and Latino neighborhoods, and measured how X throttles the load times of its competitors.
Before The Markup, Joel was a graphics editor with The Wall Street Journal’s investigations team and, before that, a data journalist at The Toronto Star.
Joel’s graphics were part of The Journal’s coverage of hush money payments to women who said they’d had affairs with Donald Trump, which was awarded the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting.
