Changes at Politics Magazine

An internal staff memo from Campaigns & Elections’ Jordan Lieberman, obtained by FishbowlDC:

We have some exciting changes here and I want to bring you up to speed. Christie Findlay, our exceptionally creative and capable Managing Editor, has been promoted to Editor-in-Chief. She helped lead our redesign this year and has written some of our best work in recent memory. Christie replaces Bill Beaman, who was just named a principal at Washington Media Group, a crisis and strategic communications firm.

Shane D’Aprile, formerly our Web Editor, has been promoted to Senior Editor. Shane is responsible for the dramatic redesign of our PoliticsMagazine.com website and has taken a major role in the improvement of our print publication.

Additionally, pollster Mark J. Penn has agreed to join our Editorial Advisory Board. Penn joins Donald Green, Wayne Johnson, Kenneth Khachigian, Mary Matalin, Dick Morris, Jeanne Shaheen, Joe Trippi, James Thurber, David Yepsen, John Zogby, Tony Fazio, Benjamin Ginsberg, Terry McAuliffe, and Ed Gillespie.
