John Stoll
X has hired John Stoll, a former editor and Detroit bureau chief at The Wall Street Journal, to lead its news group and partnership team, reports Sarah Perez of TechCrunch.
Perez reports, “‘The future of news is not legacy media,’ Yaccarino said, during the CES keynote. ‘Legacy media news has become almost like a fan service to make sure that you’re speaking to a niche audience to make your budget. And what we want to do is make sure that we provide a great place for that journalistic curiosity to return,’ she added.
“Instead, she spoke of a platform where ‘the shift in the narrative is now in the user’s hand’ and where change is inspired by what’s allowed by ‘protected free speech and a two-way conversation.’
“Yaccarino didn’t go into detail about Stoll’s upcoming responsibilities at X, only that he was leading the news group and partnership team with a focus on expanding news on X at a global scale.”
