Another NME staffer moves to Buzzfeed UK, while Snapes returns
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 17 July 2013
NME reporter Dan Martin is leaving the music magazine to join Buzzfeed UK as the site’s new Entertainment Editor. He follows former NME.com editor Luke Lewis, who was hired to set up the UK-based Buzzfeed operation earlier this year.
Tweeting his news, Martin said: “I’m off to join the team at Buzzfeed UK as Entertainment Editor. So, after twelve (!) years my beloved NME might just have a little less Biffy and QOTSA in it from now on”.
On the upside, just look out for all those Biffy and QOTSA top seventeen lists on Buzzfeed. And while the NME might be losing one writer, it has recently gained another. Or regained, rather, as the magazine’s former Assistant Reviews Editor Laura Snapes, who departed last year to join Pitchfork, is now back as its new Features Editor.
