Beginning her career in 1994 at the Connecticut daily, the Torrington Register Citizen,
Vlahos went on to nearly five years of reporting for the daily New Britain Herald in central Connecticut. 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, and Capitol Hill and 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 presidential election and the Democratic
and Republican National Conventions.
Today, she focuses on the 2008 elections and domestic
partisan politics, as well as the current war policy – including returning veterans – and how homeland and national
security policies affect international relations and civil liberties at home.
