WSJ reporter Rosman hired by NYT

Wall Street Journal reporter Katie Rosman has been hired by the New York Times, reports Alexandra Steigrad of Woman’s Wear Daily.

Steigrad writes, “Rosman, who began her career at the Journal 10 years ago, joins the Styles section later this month and will report to Styles editor Stuart Emmrich. Her last day at the Journal will be Friday.

“Calls and e-mails seeking comment from the Times were not returned. Rosman could not be reached for comment.

“Rosman, who covered digital lifestyle for the Journal, will be writing a monthly column and editing. She will essentially be filling the editor role left open by Alexandra Jacobs, who was promoted to fashion critic and features writer.

“Rosman’s appointment signals a bigger push to cover technology and digital, as the Times recently moved technology writer Nick Bilton over to the Styles section last month.”
