From The Poynter Report with Tom Jones:
Add another Brit to the list of those who could be the next big boss at CNN.
A week after Semafor’s Ben Smith reported that Mark Thompson, the former chief executive at both The New York Times and the BBC, was being considered to take over CNN, Semafor’s Max Tani is reporting that we can add another name to the list of possibilities.
Tani writes that CNN’s parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, also has talked to James Harding, who oversaw BBC News from 2013 to 2017. He then founded the British digital media outlet Tortoise.
