[insert author photo] Michael Wilbon, editor, is one of the nation s most respected sports journalists and an industry pioneer: he is one of the first sportswriters to broaden his career beyond newspapers to include television, radio, and new media. A cohost of ESPN s Pardon the Interruption and a NBA studio analyst for ABC and ESPN, Wilbon left the Washington Post in December 2010 after thirty-one years to assume an expanded role as a columnist for ESPN.com and ESPNChicago.com.
