The new host of PBS’s Washington Week grew up in Yardley, Pa.

Covering Congress and the White House is a busy gig these days.  But it’s a job Washington Post reporter Robert Costa has embraced.  

Last month Costa picked up an additional gig, becoming the host of the venerable reporter roundtable show Washington Week. He spoke with NewsWorks Tonight’s Shai Ben-Yaacov about taking over the reins of show with 50 years of history.
