News Writer
Jay Peters has been a news writer at The Verge since 2019, where he primarily covers breaking news in consumer technology, video games, entertainment, streaming, and more. He was obsessed with Sonic as a kid, and brings a "gotta go fast" mentality to quickly writing articles that succinctly communicate what matters about a given story. You might be unsurprised to read that Jay really likes running, though he prefers to run far, not fast. (He hopes Sonic isn’t too ashamed.)
