Financial Times Appoints Female U.S. Managing Editor

FTGillianTettPicGillian Tett doesn’t start her new position until September 1. But perhaps sensing how extra-newsworthy this move is, in the shadow of all that Baquet-Abramson-NYT business, the Financial Times has fired off a press release May 15.

From today’s announcement:

Tett returns to oversee the FT’s print and online editions. She will continue her twice-weekly column that earned her recognition as ‘columnist of year’ at the 2014 Press Awards.

Tett succeeds Martin Dickson who retires after an illustrious 37-year career at the FT.
