News Corp. Tablet Daily Staffs Up

Rupert Murdoch’s not-so-secret tablet tabloid The Daily is wasting no time filling out its staff as it prepares for a December launch. Another new hire has trickled out: Benjamin Carlson, now executive editor of The Atlantic Wire, The Atlantic’s year-old opinion- and commentary-tracking site.
 
He’ll join a growing list of journalists that have been hired for the News Corp. project in recent weeks, including The New Yorker music critic Sasha Frere-Jones, Maxim deputy editor Chris Wilson, former Forbes opinion editor Elisabeth Eaves.
