Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

[Johnologue]

I was checking The Autopian's mention of the change. I didn't realize Peter was actually from McKinsey and Co. There go most of my hopes that he's not basically the "acquisition that ruins Slate" that I feared.

Some interesting speculations in this thread.

It often seems to me that these executives ride a merry-go-round from one business to another!

Or Faricy was at home, sitting on the couch waiting for the phone to ring...

Either way, I wish them all success.

Next step - Slate University videos! Where's the watch thread for that?
