Staff editor changes for WSJ, Dow Jones Newswires

Dow Jones Newswires senior editor for global news coverage Gabriella Stern and Wall Street Journal deputy managing editor Jim Pinsiero sent out the following announcement on Monday:

Today in New York we will toast Eduardo Kaplan’s new and exciting career move: He is joining The Wall Street Journal as the real-time deputy editor on the foreign desk.

Eduardo, who joined Dow Jones in 1996, has been Managing Editor in charge of Money coverage in the Americas since 2000. Before that, he served as editor for Latin America and prior to that, he launched Dow Jones’s first Spanish-language news service.

We will miss Eduardo at Dow Jones Newswires, but we also know he will remain a key part of our work lives as he nurtures the real-time news flow among all parts of the Dow Jones *empire.*

Succeeding Eduardo as Managing Editor for Money coverage in the Americas will be Michael Casey.

Mike has been a Money Talks columnist since June 2009, based in New York.  Before that, he was Dow Jones Newswires’ Argentina bureau chief, in Buenos Aires, and prior to that was Assistant Managing Editor for Money coverage in our former Jersey City haunt.

Mike will report to me and Jim Pensiero, and play a key role in “special ops.”
