Claire Atkinson has been named business editor of trade publication Broadcasting & Cable, according to a story on the publication’s Web site.
The story states, “In 2007, Atkinson left Advertising Age to embark on a freelance career, and became a featured and regular contributor to several publications including The New York Times, Conde Nast Portfolio and B&C.
“‘Claire is as stellar a brand name in this business as any of the ones she has made her name covering so thoroughly throughout her career,’ Grossman says. ‘When I heard she had decided to return to a full-time position, I couldn’t call her fast enough and was thrilled when she chose to join our media platforms.’
“Her experience also includes helping to launch PR Week in the United States, as well as writing for multiple publications in her native United Kingdom.”
