WJLA-TV Washington said Friday that Gail Huff is joining the station Sept. 7.

The Allbritton station announced in June that Huff, the former WCVB-TV Boston reporter and wife of Senator Scott Brown (R-Mass.)--the surprise winner of Ted Kennedy's seat--would become a part-time special projects reporter.

Huff will not report on anything political, station spokeswoman Abby Fenton said at the time of the initial announcement, but will focus on longer-term, consumer-oriented stories and investigations.
