Fusion Is Your Tech Media Company to Watch

Today in Media Trends, Fusion has become an outlet to watch in the weeks and months ahead for anyone working in the tech/startup sectors.

Not familiar with Fusion? That’s understandable — in the past we may have confused it with the Canadian version of MTV. But the cable channel, created by a partnership between Disney/ABC TV and Univision, just turned one year old and made a slew of big hires that hints at its ambitions to lead the crowded tech news space:

• Alexis Madrigal, former editor of The Atlantic
• Kashmir Hill, senior editor at Forbes with a history of reporting on data security and related issues
• Felix Salmon, Reuters’ in-house economics wonk
• Anna Holmes, founding editor of Jezebel
• Daniela Hernandez, tech writer formerly with WIRED

If you have clients in tech, these people just got a lot more important.
