Jake Neenan

My name is Jake. You can find me covering broadband and telecom policy at Broadband Breakfast. Certain of my scoops and projects are below, and all my recent stories are here.

I have experience web scraping, extracting data from PDFs, doing data analysis and statistical tests, and navigating state public record laws. You can find my resume here.

Feel free to drop me an email at jake@breakfast.media for anything broadband related, or jakeneenan@protonmail.com for anything else. You can also message me at jakeneenan.01 on Signal.
