Rupert Murdoch has unveiled senior management appointments across his media empire as he prepares to split News Corpinto two separate divisions next year.
鲁珀特·默多克(Rupert Murdoch)公布了旗下媒体帝国的高级管理层人选,计划于明年将资讯集团(News Corp)分拆为两个单独的业务公司。
The reshuffle sees Robert Thomson, managing editor of the Wall Street Journal and a close confidant of Mr Murdoch, take over as chief executive of a new publishing company to be called News Corp, which will incorporate television and digital interests as well as newspapers in the US, UK and Australia.
在此次人事调整中,《华尔街日报》(Wall Street Journal)执行主编罗伯特·汤姆森(Robert Thomson)将出任即将成立的出版公司的首席执行官,新公司将沿用“资讯集团(News Corp)的名称,囊括集团目前在美国、英国以及澳大利亚三地的电视、数字媒体以及报纸业务。汤姆森是默多克的心腹密友。
Mr Murdoch will serve as chairman and chief executive of Fox Group, the new media and entertainment arm. James Murdoch, who is taking an increasingly prominent role in News Corp’s US television interests, will continue as deputy chief operating officer.
默多克将担任即将成立的媒体与娱乐公司福克斯集团(Fox Group)的董事长兼首席执行官;詹姆斯·默多克(James Murdoch)则将继续担任副首席运营官,目前他在资讯集团的美国电视业务领域正扮演着愈发重要的角色。
Following this appointment, Tom Mockridge, chief executive of News Internationaland a News Corp veteran of 22 years, will be leaving the company at the end of the year. He resigned unexpectedly as chief executive of the UK newspaper arm after being passed over for the chief executive position at the publishing company.
与此同时,资讯集团英国报纸业务部门资讯国际(News International)的首席执行官汤姆·默克里奇(Tom Mockridge)将于今年年底离职,此前他已在资讯集团工作了22年。他的意外辞职或与未被任命为新成立的出版公司首席执行官有关。
He will be replaced by Mike Darcey, chief operating officer at satellite broadcaster British Sky Broadcasting, who takes the helm of Mr Murdoch’s UK newspapers including the Times and the Sunday Times.
经营卫星电视业务的英国天空广播公司(British Sky Broadcasting)首席运营官迈克·达西(Mike Darcey)将接替默克里奇的职位,掌管默多克在英国包括《泰晤士报》(The Times)以及《星期日泰晤士报》(Sunday Times)在内的报纸业务。
News Corp also announced that it was to cease publication of the Daily, its lossmaking iPad-only newspaper launched in 2011. Mr Murdoch said: “We could not find a large enough audience quickly enough to convince us the business model was sustainable in the long term.
资讯集团还宣布,将停止出版亏损的The Daily,这份仅面向iPad用户的电子报纸于2011年创刊。默多克表示:“我们未能在足够短的时间内积累起足够规模的读者群,这令我们很难确信这种商业模式是长期可持续的。
The Daily brand would live on in some other operations, the company said, with some staff folded into the New York Post, the US newspaper.
资讯集团表示,The Daily品牌未来将融入其他一些业务部门,部分员工将加入集团旗下的《纽约邮报》(New York Post)。
Mr Mockridge, a New Zealander, started in News Corp’s Australian newspapers and ran its Sky Italiapay-television business before being sent to stabilise News International’s Wapping headquarters after the phone-hacking scandal.
默克里奇是新西兰人,最初加入资讯集团时在其澳大利亚的报纸业务部门工作,曾负责管理意大利天空卫视(Sky Italia)的付费电视业务。他在电话窃听丑闻爆发后,被派往资讯国际位于伦敦沃平(Wapping)的总部稳定局势。
Gerard Baker, deputy managing editor of the Wall Street Journal, has been named managing editor of the newspaper as well as editor-in-chief of Dow Jones Newswires, succeeding Mr Thomson.
《华尔街日报》副主编杰拉德·贝克(Gerard Baker)则被任命为该报主编以及道琼斯通讯社(Dow Jones Newswires)主编,接替汤姆森的工作。
News Corp is expected to file financial details regarding the split by the end of the year.
资讯集团预计将于年底之前披露与此次分拆有关的财务细节。
