Keith Kelly of The New York Post writes Wednesday that New York Times media writer Richard Siklos, who has been covering the News Corp./Dow Jones & Co. negotiations, is leaving the paper to work for Fortune magazine.
“The Canadian-born Siklos is one of the only people who can boast not one, but two biographies of Black under his belt. The last revision, ‘Shades of Black: Conrad Black – His Rise and Fall,’ was out from the McCelland & Stewart imprint of Random House in Canada in 2004.
“Siklos was the editor-in-chief of the short-lived Inside magazine for Powerful Media, the Kurt Andersen-led media reporting enterprise that burst along with the Internet bubble.”
