TALKING BIZ NEWS EXCLUSIVE
John Meehan, who had been managing editor of Bloomberg Television in the United States, is no longer with the company in the first move of an apparent shakeup under David Rhodes, former Fox News vice president of news.
A Bloomberg spokeswoman confirmed Meehan’s departure to Talking Biz News.
Rhodes was hired late last year to head Bloomberg TV’s U.S. operations. Bloomberg LP named Andrew Lack as chief executive officer of its multimedia group, responsible for the company’s television, interactive and radio operations. Â
Meehan had previously been a senior editor at CNBC before joining Bloomberg TV in 1999.
Meehan and Ed Caldwell of Bloomberg Television won the Detroit Press Club’s prestigious Golden Wheel Award in 2006 for a segment on General Motors Corp. The segment also won a Deadline Club Award from the New York chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists.
