Fairfax recruits veteran marketing journalist as CMO newsletter editor
Less than three weeks after leaving MCN, veteran marketing writer and former AdNews editor Paul McIntyre has returned to Fairfax as editor of the Australian Financial Review’s weekly CMO Brief.
The PwC sponsored newsletter, launched today, is a weekly digest of Australian and international developments and trends for the marketing sector.
Shows has desperate things are that people are “hired” because of a paid content opportunity.
AFR has a desperate shortage of business reporters and barely covers its core news beat. More obvious is its tendency to inflate its own importance on often trivial grounds. (Noting today’s two self important editorials)
Maybe they will notice one day that we have some interesting companies they might care to cover? (Anyone seen a word about CSL in the Fin?)
Win, win for everyone. Good to hear that Paul will still be commentating on our industry…
