Richard Johnson Leaves Page Six For Los Angeles

The New York Post‘s venerated (/feared) Page Six gossip columnist, Richard Johnson, is leaving his position to take on a new role in Los Angeles. He will remain within the News Corp. family, however, participating in the company’s “digital ventures.” As Politico’s Ben Smith points out, this shows that News Corp. is willing to recruit talent from less-than-thriving print properties to bolster its expanding digital efforts.
