The News Movement has hired Rebecca Hutson as UK head of news.
The appointment comes after National World bought a $1.25 million stake in TNM, a social media-first title launched last year with offices in London and New York. Under this partnership, TNM journalists will produce news content for National World websites.
Hutson said:
“I couldn’t be more excited to be joining The News Movement at such a key moment in their journey. The team has achieved incredible results in such a short time and I look forward to helping them build audiences, tell great stories and do news differently.
“At a time when news avoidance is a growing and worrying trend, and how young audiences consume news continues to change, TNM is a truly pioneering and disruptive business that is facing those challenges head on.
“With my experience in both established newsrooms and start-ups, I’m looking forward to supporting the team to achieve all its ambitions – and more – in the new year.”
