Our Journalists
Reuben Jones — Washington Bureau Reporter
After joining Spectrum News 1 in Charlotte in 2017, Reuben transferred to Washington, D.C. in 2021. He now covers politics and federal government for North Carolina and the national Spectrum News audience. Reuben is a Virginia native and is energized by meeting people he likely wouldn’t meet if he weren’t a reporter. When he’s not at work, you can find Reuben playing tennis or golf, running, trying new restaurants, and rooting on his favorite college basketball teams (go George Mason Patriots and UVA Hoos!).
