AdNews sees departure of fourth editor in three years

AdNews editor Darren Davidson is to leave the magazine after eight months at the helm.

The Australian said today that Davidson would be joining the newspaper as a business media writer in March.

Davidson is the title’s fourth editor to depart since 2009.

Davidson became editor of AdNews in May last year, inheriting the role from Danielle Long who was in the job for just over a year. Prior to Long, Matt Porter also edited the title for just over a year, following on from Andrea Sophocleous who left in February 2009.
