Stephen Adler, who assumed the editor-in-chief slot at Reuters News two months ago, has hired journalism heavyweights Paul Ingrassia and Jim Gaines.
Ingrassia, Gaines |
Ingrassia, an automotive writer, is former president of Dow Jones Newswires. He takes the deputy editor-in-chief slot for news content creation at the wire service.
Gaines, ex-managing editor of Time, Life and People, is now ethics, standards and innovation editor at Reuters.
Adler also added Reg Chua, former editor-in-chief of South China Morning Post, to the data editor spot to capitalize on various databases of Thomson Reuters. Stuart Karle, ex-general counsel of the Wall Street Journal, is now COO in charge of staff functions at Reuters.
Adler, a veteran of BusinessWeek and the Wall Street Journal, says while Reuters is committed to "being second to none in speed, accuracy, relevance, and fairness, he wants to carve out a reputation for "enterprise, insight, analysis, and originality."
