Sept 2, 2014: Slate: Why I’m Leaving Slate for Bloomberg Politics
This blog does not believe in lede-burying, so here you go: On Sept. 19 I’ll be leaving Slate to work for Bloomberg Politics. I’ll be covering exactly what I cover now, but at a different address.

Nov 30, 2008: Washington City Paper: Dave Weigel Leaves Reason Magazine
I heard early in November–and then confirmed–that Dave Weigel was leaving Reason, but for reasons you'll see in my huge disclaimer, I respected Weigel's request that I keep it on the DL until he announced it himself.
