Yahoo Finance hires Galloway as head of content

Anthony Galloway has been hired as head of content for Yahoo Finance.

He will be responsible for leading programming and video content and will report to Tapan Bhat, general manager and president of Yahoo Finance.

Galloway joins Yahoo Finance after serving in senior executive roles at The Wall Street Journal, CBS News, Condé Nast, and Vice Media, following a nearly 15-year run at NBC News.

At The Journal, Galloway was chief content officer of editorial video, audio, and voice programming. In this masthead position, Galloway led production teams across six bureaus on three continents to produce daily news, feature, and long-form documentary programming for the company’s digital video, social media, streaming, and podcasting platforms.

Galloway led the group to double the organization’s video viewership and podcast audience, earning the organization’s first national Emmy Award and serving as part of a cross-platform reporting team that won the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting. Galloway was the editorial lead for the WSJ’s partnerships with YouTube, Google, and Twitter, and he helped develop the organization’s first streaming television projects with Netflix and AppleTV+, as well as a daily podcast with Spotify’s Gimlet Media.

More recently, Galloway served as senior vice president of CBS News 24/7, the first-to-market streaming news channel from CBS News and Stations. He oversaw day-to-day programming and production on the globally distributed news channel.

Before his time at CBS and the Journal, Galloway was vice president of digital video programming at Condé Nast Entertainment, where he was tasked with re-envisioning more than 20 legacy magazine titles for a digital video world. Galloway held a similar role at Vive Media where, as executive producer of mobile content, he launched a new daily digital show, “Daily Vice.”
