Alan Rusbridger And Emily Bell Make The Media Guardian’s 100
THE Guardian newspaper’s MediaGuardian 100 is “our annual guide to the most powerful people in the industry. Candidates are judged on three criteria – their cultural, economic and political influence in the UK.”
This arbitrary test of media might is decided by a panel of ten, including:
Janine Gibson, executive editor of guardian.co.uk and editor-in-chief of MediaGuardian.
Jane Martinson, editor of MediaGuardian.
Brent Hoberman, a non-executive director of Guardian Media Group
The questions is: where does the panel place the Guardian and its editor?
39: Alan Rusbridger – editor, the Guardian; editor-in-chief, Guardian News & Media
Rusbridger said the Guardian, the Observer and guardian.co.uk would retain their distinctive voices following the move to new premises in King’s Cross in north London at the end of this year.
Rest assured.
98: Emily Bell – director of digital content, Guardian News & Media
The next 12 months will see the integration of the newsrooms of the Guardian, Observer and guardian.co.uk as part of its move to a 24/7 multimedia operation when it moves to new premises in King’s Cross by the end of this year.
You better believe it.
Let’s hope the Guardian’s staff are reading…
* Why no Anorak? And why not Anorak for the Guardian?
