NY Times publishing reporter leaves for Midwest job

Julie Bosman, who’s covered publishing for The New York Times for the past four years, is leaving the beat to become the paper’s Midwest correspondent, reports Joe Pompeo of Capital New York.

Pompeo writes, “It’s the latest move on the Times media desk, which has been playing musical chairs for the past several months: In the editor’s seat, Peter Lattman replaced Bruce Headlam, who now oversees video; Brian Stelter left the TV news beat for a job at CNN with no replacement named as of yet; Ravi Somaiya is covering print media while Christine Haughney is on the maternity leave; and there’s still no word on who will replace Amy Chozick, who’s now covering Hillary Clinton, on the corporate media beat.

“Bosman has been with the Times for 12 years, beginning as Maureen Dowd’s news assistant in 2002. She’s also covered the 2008 presidential race, education and metro. Her latest role will take her to Chicago.

“Below, you can read the full memo from national editor Alison Mitchell and deputy national editor Ethan Bronner:”
