CNBC senior vice president Dan Colarusso sent out the following Wednesday morning:
I am happy to announce Christina Passariello is joining CNBC as our San Francisco Bureau Chief. She will begin on February 12 and report to CNBC Managing Editor Lacy O’Toole.
Christina comes to us from The Washington Post, where she was most recently Deputy Business Editor after spending five years as its Technology Editor. Before that, she spent more than a decade at The Wall Street Journal, first covering European luxury and retail in its Paris bureau and then taking on the Deputy Technology Editor role in San Francisco. Christina also was part of the prestigious Knight Journalism Fellowship program at Stanford.
Christina, an experienced leader and award-winning journalist, will help us further cement our position in Silicon Valley and put CNBC in a prime position to deepen our technology coverage on TV.
Please join me in welcoming Christina to the CNBC team.
