— From North Charleston, South Carolina
In recent weeks, Tara Wood has anchored for Ron DeSantis (Governor of Florida) at a conservative rally, brought people to the launch of the campaign of Tim Scott (Senator of South Carolina) and negotiated with the team of Donald Trump for a meeting with the ex-president, also a presidential candidate for 2024.

Moms for Liberty is a national association which is beginning to weigh in the Republican primaries.

Since its takeover in July 2007 by News Corp. of Rupert Murdoch, the daily has however evolved towards a more general formula. The goal: to compete with The New York Times. From now on, more space is given to international news and politics. Sport and culture are also gaining momentum. Finally, a luxurious supplement on the art of living, called WSJ Magazine, was born in September 2008. It accompanies the weekend edition 11 times a year.
Installed in the financial district of New York since its creation in 1889, the editorial staff has remained there despite the damage caused by the attacks of September 11, 2001 and an exile of a few months in New Jersey. But, in 2008, she ended up leaving Wall Street to settle a little further north, in Midtown, in the offices of News Corp.
The electronic version of the journal is available in 6 editions in 3 languages (English, Chinese and Japanese). It is fed by 1,300 journalists in some fifty countries. Every day, nearly a thousand articles, most of which are paid for, are put online. With 1.7 million subscribers and 42 million visitors per month, it is the largest paying economic and financial information site on the web.
