David Muir to Lead Breaking-News Duties at ABC

David Muir will start to lead breaking-news duties at ABC News, a new effort by the Walt Disney unit to rework an unorthodox arrangement involving two of its top anchors.
Under a new structure, Muir will largely handle the bulk of ABC News’ special reports and news of national importance, while George Stephanopoulos, the “Good Morning America” and “This Week” anchor may shepherd similar efforts in the morning, according to three people familiar with the matter. Since 2014, when Diane Sawyer stepped down from her tenure on “World News Tonight,” Stephanopoulos was recognized as ABC News’ “Chief Anchor,” and had led coverage of events of critical importance, presidential debates and elections. He has often been paired with Muir and Linsey Davis, an anchor who leads a program on the network’s streaming-video hub, ABC News Live. That title will no longer be utilized.
Wired names Gideon Lichfield of MIT Tech Review as top editor
Wired, the preeminent tech magazine, has its new leader: Gideon Lichfield of MIT Technology Review is coming on as its global editorial director.
Wired’s parent company Condé Nast, which also publishes Vogue, The New Yorker and other popular magazines, announced the appointment Tuesday. He starts on March 22. Lichfield is replacing Nicholas Thompson, who was recently appointed CEO of The Atlantic.
Whereas Thompson was editor in chief of Wired, Lichfield’s title of global editorial director is reflective of a recent reorganization inside Condé Nast under which editors not only oversee the US titles but also international ones. As part of that shift, Anna Wintour was named chief content officer of Condé Nast and global editorial director of Vogue.
Stephanopoulos, 60, has been at ABC since 1997 and has been Chief Anchor since 2014
Earlier this year, David Muir, 47, was given the Chief Anchor s responsibilities of leading special coverage, but without the title
He is said to have brokered the deal two years ago but was told he d have to wait until 2020 - when Stephanopoulos commitments were winding down
When Stephanopoulos - who earns $15million a year- found out about it earlier this year, he was irate and threatened to walk
Disney boss Bob Iger flew from California to New York to offer him a deal to stay
Stephanopoulos will now be producing content for Disney-owned platforms Hulu and National Geographic
