Alexis Madrigal, deputy editor of Atlantic.com and a prominent online voice on technology and culture, will join the cable network Fusion as Silicon Valley bureau chief and the anchor of a television show, reports Ravi Somaiya of the New York Times.
Somaiya writes, “Mr. Madrigal, 32, will start Nov. 3, he said in an interview on Tuesday, and will cover technology and broader issues ‘across television, live events and digital,’ he said.
“He moved to Fusion, he said, because ‘it’s kind of a media-making opportunity that I just couldn’t not do. There was nowhere else I could expand my vision of the future.’
“He said he was likely to focus on the intersection of technology, social movements and ideas.
“‘Over the next few months Alexis will lead our efforts to create and expand Fusion’s editorial footprint in the Bay Area,’ said Fusion’s chief executive, Isaac Lee, in a note to staff members.”
