Dick Meyer, currently editorial director of NPR Digital, will become executive editor for NPR News.

David Sweeney is assuming the position of Managing Editor.

Brian Duffy's new title is Director of Enterprise and Planning.

Stu Seidel is moving from supervising senior editor to deputy managing editor and will run the News Desk being launched June 1.
