Tony Burman appointed as Managing Director at Al Jazeera English
It was announced this morning that Tony Burman has been appointed as the new Managing Director of Al Jazeera English. Tony will be replacing Nigel Parsons who launched the channel in 2006. Nigel is now tasked with overseeing the commercial interests at Al Jazeera.
It is notable that Burman used to head up the CBC in Canada - previously most senior appointments at Al Jazeera English hailed from the UK.
I suspect that you'll get all the good gossip at the usual AJE watering holes tonight...

Tony Burman - Correction ...Tony Burman did not, "head up the CBC', as this poster observed. He was the Editor in Chief of the CBC News for a few years. This is an important distinction. But good luck to him nevertheless ~ he's going to need it!
