AOL announced Monday that Michael Arrington is leaving the tech news site TechCrunch that he founded and sold to the Internet company a year ago.
“AOL named Erick Schonfeld editor of TechCrunch. Mr. Schonfeld was previously the site’s co-editor.
“Mr. Arrington commented on the matter briefly at a TechCrunch conference in San Francisco, saying ‘it is no longer a good situation for me to stay’ and calling it ‘a sad day.’
“When the fund was announced Sept. 1, an AOL spokesman said that Mr. Arrington would remain a founding editor of TechCrunch. In the role, he would disclose conflict of interests when he wrote but have ‘no editorial oversight,’ the company said.
