Journalistic Revolving Door

The chief White House correspondent of the Associated Press, Jennifer Loven, a past president of the White House Correspondents Association, will leave AP to become a managing director of the Glover Park Group, a lobbying and public relations firm whose clients, according to the firm Web site, have included the American Civil Liberties Union, the American Postal Workers Union, the United Federation of Teachers, and Pfizer. Mike Allen's Politico Playbook has the scoop.

She's the second former president of the White House Correspondents Association in recent months to become a lobbyist for left-leaning groups, Bloomberg's Edwin Chen being the first, though Glover Park has also done work for right-leaning groups, and Pfizer is hard to classify one way or another.
