About
Scott Greenstone covers PNW politics for KUOW, from county council to Congress. His reporting focuses on the people who influence policy with money, media, or legislation, and the real-world impacts of their influence. He co-hosts Sound Politics with Libby Denkmann.
Greenstone came to KUOW in 2024, after working at KNKX and The Seattle Times. He's written on everything from homelessness to business news to movie reviews for newspapers and radio. Greenstone studied Journalism and Comparative Literature at the University of Oregon. Before that, Greenstone was homeschooled, which is probably why he's like that.
