Wall Street Journal managing editor Robert Thomson sent out the following announcement on Wednesday:
“I am delighted to announce that Santiago Perez, the Dow Jones Newswires bureau chief for Spain and Portugal, will now also oversee The Wall Street Journal’s coverage in those countries, which are of particular interest to our readers at this time. Santiago and his extremely capable team of reporters, editors and translators will continue generating real-time coverage for Newswires readers in English and Spanish.
“In addition, they will now look for opportunities to tell business, political, cultural and general news stories for the Journal’s readership. Santiago will continue to report to Art Mooradian, the Newswires bureau chief for Paris and head of operations for Southern Europe, and he will work very closely with the Journal’s Alessandra Galloni.”
