Bloomberg LP has made another big raid on old media again, poaching Justin Smith from the Atlantic Media Co. to be global media CEO. Smith is the Atlantic Media president who is credited with reversing 154-year-old Atlantic magazine’s losses by advancing an aggressive, digital-first strategy. He was rewarded with a promotion to president, a role he used to push the company into new areas of revenue.

The financial data powerhouse has sought to spread its costs and influence across other platforms and reduce its reliance on market data subscription revenue. In that vein, it’s bought Businessweek (which, as it happens, previously courted Smith to be its global publisher), expanded its TV footprint and moved into government and legal information services. Atlantic Media owner and chairman David Bradley may have lost a heavy hitter but wins points for graciousness. In the memo he sent to employees, Bradley praised Smith for helping the company double its revenue, return the Atlantic to profitability and spearhead the creation of new, original online properties including the Atlantic Wire and Quartz. “In my frame, Atlantic Media was earning its doctoral degree in modern media from one of modern media's master practitioners,” Bradley wrote. Bradley’s memo was also... Continue reading at 'AdWeek'
