Jake Kanter joins Deadline as international TV editor

Jake Kanter has joined Deadline, a publication focusing on Hollywood news, as international TV editor.

Previously UK executive editor at Business Insider, where he oversaw a 60-strong London bureau, Kanter was responsible for breaking major stories.

He will work closely with Peter White, ahead of his relocation to Los Angeles, as well as international editor Andreas Wiseman and Nancy Tartaglione.

Prior to Business Insider, he was news editor at the UK trade magazine Broadcast, where some of the big stories he broke during his tenure included Sony’s acquisition of The Crown producer Left Bank and Ben Stephenson’s departure from the BBC to join J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot.

Kanter, who started this week, is also chair of the Broadcasting Press Guild.
