Digital Diva -Executive Content Editor
Greater Atlanta Area
A.S. Ochs (1858-1935), the newspaper publisher of the famed New York Times, spoke the often parodied quote... "All the News thats is fit to print". Mr Och was ol'skool in 1897, but today, CNN has changed it too--All the News thats fit to digitize--CNN has global reach and resources. The digital team manages distribution, rights, permissions and platforms to spread the content created in the newsrooms of the world. I was a platform general manager, a senior dept executive within the CNN job title structure.Based in Atlanta USA, the CNN NewSource is the content licensing arm of CNN Worldwide.
