Dow Jones reporter leaving for CNET

Shara Tibken, a Dow Jones Newswires reporter, has resigned effective Sept. 13 for a job at CNET.

Tibken tells Talking Biz News that she will start at CNET on Sept. 18, and that she will still be based in New York.

At Dow Jones, she covers semiconductors, data storage and IBM. At CNET, she will be covering consumer tech news, responding to whatever big news breaks each day with analysis.

Tibken graduated from Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa in 2007. After that she had a Dow Jones Newspaper Fund internship at the Grand Forks Herald in North Dakota. She started at Dow Jones in late 2007 and has been there since. My first job at DJ was covering breaking news. She then covered the stock market for a couple years, watching big movers. She’s been covering tech for two years.
