WSJ Will Hire Twelve To Cover New York City
Right after announcing it would close its Boston bureau, the Wall Street Journal is gonna make a brand new start of it in old New York, with the announcement that the paper will hire a dozen reporters to cover traditional city desk beats in the Big Apple.
It’s part of owner Rupert Murdoch’s plan to create a New York edition, which could launch early next year, the New York Times reports.
An obvious choice for the NYC staffers would be the laid-off Boston writers, but they covered the Boston mutual fund industry, not crime, courts, and city hall. Even assuming that all nine Boston writers switch beats, that still leaves three open slots, so get that résumé ready.
