Former WSJ Reporter Gina Chon Joins Quartz

Gina Chon, who stepped down from The Wall Street Journal after details of her relationship with Brett McGurk — who at the time was working with the National Security Council in Iraq — were leaked, is joining Quartz. Chon had been with the Journal since 2005, and was its main reporter in Iraq from 2007 to 2009.

According to Talking Biz News, Chon will work as Quartz’s corporate reporter. “At Quartz, Gina will lead our growing coverage of businesses and their leaders,” wrote Kevin Delaney, the site’s editor-in-chief, in a memo to staff.
