Politico brings on Laura Rozen, an actual foreign policy expert

Politico has brought on Laura Rozen, who will be writing a blog and articles on foreign policy. It's likely to become quite influential.

This is good for Politico. Their staff is heavy on political types who don't actually have much issue area expertise. It's heavy on gossip, some of it correct, some not. Adding someone like Rozen ought to make it a bit more serious.
