A Tech Journalist in a TV Newsroom
Bilton built his name as a technology columnist at the New York Times. His more recent work has been in documentary filmmaking, with projects for both HBO and Netflix under his belt. Two of those documentaries, “Unknown: Killer Robots” and “Biggest Heist Ever,” were made in collaboration with Bari Weiss, who now serves as editor-in-chief at CBS News. The two first crossed paths socially in Los Angeles before working together professionally.
