Why Don't More Women Run Media Companies?
Posted in: Uncategorized
The recent departure of Arianna Huffington as editor-in-chief at The Huffington Post, the company she co-founded in 2005, left publishing even more bereft of female leaders than before.
Then again, The Huffington Post already had a male CEO in place, just like Time Inc., The New York Times Co., Cond Nast, Hearst Corp. and its Hearst Magazines unit, Meredith, Bloomberg Media, The Financial Times, Guardian Media Group, Gannett, Tronc, Dow Jones, Forbes Media, Politico, BuzzFeed, Vox Media, Vice Media, Mashable, NPR, Fusion, Mic and Business Insider.
Some executives worry that the imbalance is bad not just for women’s chances for advancement but for their products and their businesses as a whole.
