The Media Carousel
The revolving door of the media industry never stops. Here, WWD rounds up some notable moves of late. First up is Hearst Magazines, which continues to evolve under president Troy Young. Carol Smith has been promoted to senior vice president and publisher director of fashion titles Harper’s Bazaar, Elle and Marie Claire. She’s been publisher and chief revenue officer of Bazaar since 2011 and will take up the expanded role in mid-August. Smith is replacing longtime Hearst Magazines executive Kevin O’Malley, who the company said decided to retire. O’Malley joined Hearst in 2003 as publisher and chief revenue officer of Esquire and in 2011 moved to Elle immediately after Hearst acquired the title from Lagardère. He was the choice of former magazines president David Carey, but it was only at the start of this year that his role was expanded to include Marie Claire. Hearst is also launching an Italian edition of Bazaar and pulled Alan Prada from Vogue Italia to be its editor in chief. The publication will first roll out this fall as digital only and then move into print later the following year. Elsewhere: Graydon Carter has filled out his AirMail masthead. He’s brought on many former colleagues from Vanity Fair, includingFollow WWD on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.
