Newsweek Tumblr Editor Mark Coatney Leaves for Tumblr
“Always lead with the news: I’ve decided to leave my position at Newsweek and accept a job at Tumblr,” writes Newsweek Tumblr editor Mark Coatney in a post on his personal Tumblr.
In a post tagged “Shameless Self-Promotion,” Coatney writes that the iffy future of Newsweek, which parent company The Washington Post put up for sale in early May, is not the reason behind his departure:
[T]his decision isn’t about the future of Newsweek; it’s about the future of Tumblr, and what I believe is a really interesting and great opportunity to help shape and grow a community, and to guide publishers into a new and better way of connecting with their readers.
