As well as a new Washington-based presentation team, there are more moves to sell and monetise BBC News across the USA. Krystal Bowden, from Brooklyn, is the new VP of Content Strategy, promoted from her gig with BBC Storyworks; Ilyas Kirmani, from Lexington, is the new VP of Live and Talent Strategy and brings experience from NBC, MSNBC and CNN.
Danny Boyle is the sole UK hire in this recruitment drive. He was Kent's Young Journalist of the Year 2007, for his work with the Bromley and Bexley Extra. He comes more recent experience at the Express and the Telegraph, and is to be 'Head of Newsletters'.
