Shakeup at Crain’s Cleveland as executive editor departs

Crain’s Cleveland Business has parted ways with executive editor Elizabeth McIntyre and transitioned managing editor Scott Suttell to a “special projects” role, reports Sam Allard of Axios Cleveland.

Allard reports, “Crain’s says that to better meet the needs of its audience and “drive innovation” in how it delivers news, it’s realigning editorial talent across its city brands.

“Ann Dwyer, editor of Crain’s Chicago, will serve as interim editor in Cleveland.

“What they’re saying: ‘Our commitment to quality journalism remains unchanged, but how we deliver that content must evolve,’ associate publisher Amy Stoessel told Axios.

“‘We thank Elizabeth for all she has done to lead Crain’s Cleveland Business over the past nine years, and we wish her nothing but the best.'”
