CNN and CNNmoney.com will merge their respective tech desks into one team headed by New York-based editor David Goldman, reports Matthew Lynch of Capital New York.
Lynch writes, “CNNMoney.com executive editor Chris Peacock and CNN Digital managing editor Meredith Artley made the announcement in an email to staffers this morning. As per the memo: Goldman will oversee a team that spans the network’s Atlanta and New York offices and will focus on four main areas of coverage: ‘The business of Big Tech, Innovation, Privacy/Cybersecurity and Our Digital Lifestyle.’
“The move comes amid an inflection point for tech coverage. The Wall Street Journal recently unveiled its amped up tech channel, WSJD, meant to replace the loss of Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg’s AllThingsD, which the pair morphed into the NBCUniversal-backed Re/code at the start of the year. Yahoo’s new tech efforts, fronted by former New York Times staffer David Pogue, are beginning to take shape. And the field hosts a share of younger players, such as The Verge and Mashable, which took on its first outside investors last week.”
