  Scott Detrow is a congressional correspondent for NPR. He also co-hosts the NPR Politics Podcast.
  
  Detrow joined NPR in 2015 to cover the presidential election. He focused on the Republican side of the 2016 race, spending time on the campaign trail with Donald Trump, and also reported on the election's technology and data angles.
  
  Detrow worked as a statehouse reporter for member stations WITF in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and KQED in San Francisco, California. He has also covered energy policy for NPR's StateImpact project, where his reports on Pennsylvania's hydraulic fracturing boom won a DuPont-Columbia and national Edward R. Murrow Award in 2013.

Pennsylvania’s natural gas drilling boom will be front and center over the coming weeks, in two nationally-broadcast programs.
First up, 60 Minutes. Reporter Leslie Stahl will take a look at the economic and environmental impacts of drilling in several states, according to the show’s website. The story airs Sunday night, at seven o’clock.
And next week, be sure to tune into your local public radio station to catch This American Life, which will focus on how emotional Marcellus Shale drilling has become in Pennsylvania.
Here’s the 60 Minutes preview:
