Jay Fielden Joins List of Troy Young-Era Departures at Hearst | People on the Move

Though he did not offer an explanation for his resignation in the post other than having “felt the lure of new possibilities,” this move follows shortly after a number of other recent departures at Hearst including chief content officer Joanna Coles—who left after a 12-year career with the company a week after Young’s appointment—her Cosmopolitan editor-in-chief successor Michele Promaulayko, Cosmo publisher Donna Kalajian Lagani, SVP and publishing director of the Hearst Design Group Kate Kelly Smith, and Michael Clinton who announced earlier this month that he is retiring after 21 years with the company. It also follows shortly after the backlash that both Esquire and Fielden received when a year-long investigation into allegations of sexual assault against director Bryan Singer by two of the magazine’s staffers was killed by Hearst and later published by The Atlantic.   Fielden joined Hearst in 2011 as the editor-in-chief of Town & Country, later moving to Esquire in 2016, though he stayed on T&C’s masthead as its editorial director at the same time. He started his career in the magazine media industry at Condé Nast, where he held various roles at The New... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
