Lydia Polgreen is stepping down as editor in chief of news and opinion site HuffPost after three years at the helm, with no successor in place.
“I’ve been an audio obsessive since I was a little expat kid glued to the shortwave radio in our kitchen in Kenya, yearning to connect with the far-flung world,” Polgreen said in the note to staff that she also posted on Twitter. “Gimlet has built the greatest audio team in the world and I’m so lucky to have the chance to learn from them.”
It’s understood that Verizon Media, the owner of HuffPost, is conducting a search for Polgreen’s replacement, both externally and internally. A spokesperson for Verizon said: “Lydia has been a valuable part of our Verizon Media family and we thank her for all of her contributions. We wish Lydia all the best.”
