Old Lefties Never Die, They Just Take New Jobs at Big Media Companies
I’m sure this will turn out well.
Vivian Schiller will be joining NBC News as Chief Digital Officer. The announcement was made today by NBC News President Steve Capus. Schiller’s role is a new position at NBC News, as the network expands its leadership team to add management of its digital platforms. She will join the news division in mid-July.
Reporting to Capus, Schiller will lead the digital strategy for both NBC News and MSNBC to ensure future growth and innovation. Her responsibilities include strategic oversight of the network’s digital extensions on the web and in mobile, interaction with the Joint Venture that oversees the msnbc.com digital network, as well as providing direction to the network’s new emerging properties such as EducationNation.com and theGrio.com.
When we last saw Schiller, she was defending one of her executives for in order to suck up to what he believed were Islamists with a fat check for NPR and giving us all a solemn pinky-swear that NPR wasn’t a biased news organization at all. Before that, she canned Juan Williams for speaking truth to power and, when some of us objected to the firing, suggested that Williams seek psychiatric treatment for his “feelings”.
Yep, Schilling’s a real peach and I’m sure she’s going to steer NBC’s digital properties in a fair and unbiased manner, especially that one property geared toward educating children. Maybe her first effort could be a special education section on what “objective” means.
