New Republic Fills Out the Ranks

Five new hires and the promotion of Laura Reston to managing editor.

Laura Reston (pictured) joined New Republic last summer as a reporter. A year and a quarter later, she’s very impressively moving up to managing editor, replacing Elaine Teng. Reston graduated from Harvard in 2015, where she was Metro editor of the Harvard Crimson, and then interned briefly at Forbes before joining a media organization that, admittedly, has had its share of upheavals this year since being purchased by Win McCormack.

Her appointment is one of a half dozen editorial and business moves announced today by the magazine.
