Alexandra Attkisson Petri (/ˈptr/, born March 15, 1988) is an American humorist and newspaper columnist. In 2010, she became the youngest person to have a column in The Washington Post. Petri runs the ComPost blog on the paper's website, on which she formerly worked with Dana Milbank.[2] In 2017, a piece of satire she wrote about president Donald Trump was miscategorized as news and included in one of the White House's daily press briefings.[3] She was recognized in the Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2018.[4]
