Nikki Finke Hires Variety Vet To Helm Deadline New York
Ever since Nikki Finke sold her blog Deadline Hollywood Daily to Mail.com Media Corp. in June, we’ve been looking forward to see who she would hire as New York editor as Deadline expands to become a bicoastal pub.
Last night Finke announced that she had chosen Mike Fleming, a 20-year Variety veteran, to helm her East Coast operations, to be called Deadline New York. She’s also brought on Tim Adler to lead Deadline London.
