Beginning her career in 1994 at the Connecticut daily, Torrington
Register Citizen, Vlahos went on to nearly five years of reporting for the Greater Hartford daily, The New Britain Herald . Her experience there took her from town and city government and budgets to state
supreme court cases, the Connecticut General Assembly, crime, cops, education, healthcare, economic development, local and
state elections, music and arts, and politics at every imaginable level. Moving to the nation's
capital in 1999, Vlahos took reporting jobs on both sides of the ideological spectrum, writing mainly about healthcare, families
and mental health issues for the National Association of Social Workers News. She then shifted to covering Capitol Hill and national politics – including the 2000 Presidential election –
for ConservativeHQ.com, before landing in the Internet policy and technology beat
at the Washington bureau of Bridge News, a former global financial news wire. She began her time at FOXNews.com in June 2001, and has since written about everything from national security and civil liberties in the wake of 9/11 to campaign
finance reform, veterans, Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Middle East, gun control,the Department
of Defense, the conservative movement and the progressive netroots, the media and the federal budget. She has written over
100 "House Hunting" and Senate race profiles for the 2002 through 2006 election cycles, as well as coverage of the
2004 Democratic and Republican National Conventions, the 2008 elections and the National Republican Convention in 2008
for FOXNews.com, for which she continues to write about domestic politics and foreign
policy issues.
Today, she also contributes reports to The American
Conservative and it's blog, @TAC, concentrating on national security, war policy, civil liberties and returning veterans,
and focuses on much of the same issues for her weekly column at Antiwar.com. She has also been writing on homeland security
policy for HSToday since 2004.
