The Wall Street Journal said on Wednesday it is reorganising its editing ranks to integrate print and online news operations as well as simplify its international news structure. The changes will deal with what the newspaper called "profound changes sweeping the news business."
The Journal is owned by Dow Jones & Co Inc, whose controlling family is considering whether to sell the company to Rupert Murdoch's News Corp for $5 billion. Wall Street Journal Online's managing editor, Bill Grueskin, will become deputy managing editor for news, and Dan Hertzberg, senior deputy managing editor, will become deputy managing editor for international news. Alan Murray, an assistant managing editor, will oversee online operations. Deputy Managing Editors John Bussey and Edward Felsenthal are expected to lose their titles. The editors will begin their new roles in July.
