Caleb J. Melby
Caleb Melby is a senior investigative reporter with Bloomberg News, where he works with journalists across the newsroom to report urgent stories that have prompted action from prosecutors, regulators and lawmakers. His exclusive report on off-the-books perks offered by the Trump Organization triggered investigations, a guilty plea to felony charges by Trump’s chief financial officer, and the first and only criminal convictions of Trump’s business. His investigation with Polly Mosendz into Cerebral Inc. prompted a federal inquiry into its prescribing practices. Cerebral’s CEO was ousted and the company ceased prescribing most controlled medications. His series with Noah Buhayar and Kocieniewski showed how “well-connected individuals perverted the stated intention” of the federal Opportunity Zone program, and won a George Polk award. Stories with Kocieniewski on Kushner Cos. revealed deals that "stretched across the world and into the White House,” winning several awards, including the top honor from the New York Press Club.
