Isaac Saul          

Political Journalist & CEO at Tangle News

Isaac Saul is the founder of Tangle News, an independent politics-oriented newsletter, website and podcast that pushes people outside their news bubbles with a non-partisan approach to journalism and shares the best arguments from across the political spectrum. Drawing on a rich tapestry of experiences -- from a politically charged upbringing in Pennsylvania to global travels and a collaborative venture with Ashton Kutcher — he has fostered a community of 100,000 open-minded readers eager for balanced, substantive discourse. Tangle is consistently rated as one of the most balanced, trustworthy online news outlets.

Previously, Saul was a senior politics reporter, editor and founding member at A Plus, the positive news outlet founded by Kutcher. His reporting focuses on Congress, elections, immigration and climate change. Saul's writing has appeared in TIME Magazine, CNN, The New York Daily News, The Forward, Yahoo!, The Huffington Post, Quartz, and been cited by The Washington Post, The New York Times and Fox News, among others. Before A Plus, he was an Associate Editor at Huffington Post and the sports editor at The Pitt News.

Yahoo News named Saul, a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh, one of the 16 people who shaped the 2016 election. In 2020, Forbes named him one of the Next 1000 upstart entrepreneurs redefining the American dream.
