ABC's Davis to SEIU

Another jump from the media to politics: ABC News's deputy political director, Teddy Davis, emails that he's leaving the network to join SEIU's already-muscular communications and politics operation.

He'll be Assistant Director of Communications at the giant union, he said, "working with the SEIU team on their political campaigns and policy agenda.?"

The hire is a sign that SEIU's new leadership intends to keep its large Washington footprint.
