Kevin Reynolds
Reynolds, who had been at Bloomberg for more than 20 years, declined comment when contacted by Talking Biz News.
Within six months of its launch, First Word became the most-read wire on the Bloomberg terminal behind Bloomberg News. It now receives roughly the same number of client views as Bloomberg News and is considered one of the most successful new products in company history.
Before starting First Word, Reynolds turned around two operations for Bloomberg. He started multiple others, including the training program used for all new hires around the world as well as a government and political news service for BGov, the company’s product that quantifies the business impact of U.S. government action.
During his tenure at Bloomberg, Reynolds also oversaw the desks around the world that send flash headlines on breaking news from press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission filings, websites and other media, as well as Bloomberg’s overnight and weekend staff.
He’s worked as a beat reporter, feature writer, editor and assignment editor and spent a combined 10 years in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and U.S. Marine Corps.

This is simply a tremendous loss for Bloomberg. It's hard to see how the company will thrive without Reynolds at the help. I'm shocked and appalled that the company didn't do whatever it could to keep him.
So shocked to hear this. Kevin is really good at his job and was one of the nicest people you'd ever want to know and work with. Good Luck to him in his future endeavors; he will surely be a success.
