Washington Post CEO Will Lewis to Appoint Matt Murray as Permanent Editorial Leader After 6-Month Search
Dec 20, 2024, 07:47 PM
Washington Post CEO Will Lewis is set to appoint Matt Murray, the acting executive editor, as the permanent editorial leader of the newsroom. This decision follows a six-month search for a new editor, which did not result in an external hire. Murray, who previously served as a top editor at the Wall Street Journal, was initially appointed as an interim leader after Lewis's first choice, Rob Winnett, faced opposition from within the newsroom. In addition to his new role, Murray has been involved in restructuring efforts, including the establishment of WP Ventures, a new division focused on digital projects such as video, audio, and newsletters. Krissah Thompson, currently a managing editor at the Washington Post, has been appointed to lead WP Ventures, with plans to launch in the near future.
