Obama's Head Speechwriter to Step Down

May head to Hollywood, resulting in lots of "Which Jon Favreau do you mean?" moments

Jon Favreau, the man behind many of President Barack Obama's orations is stepping down as head speechwriter, reports the Los Angeles Times.

Tuesday's report comes after December rumours that Favreau, who has worked as a speechwriter for Obama for seven years, would be stepping down soon after writing the president's second inaugural address. "We hear he's mulling various options but hasn't made a decision about his second-term plans," reported The Washington Post in December.
