USA Today Editor in Chief Out After a Year in Job

On Wednesday, Caren Bohan, editor-in-chief of USA Today, will leave after a tenure lasting little more than a year, confirmed by Monica Richardson and updated on Tuesday.
Amid corporate change, USA Today Co. rebranded last month and announced $100 million in cuts over the summer, reflecting ongoing financial pressure.
Bohan joined USA Today as Washington editor after a career at Reuters, became top editor after a two-month interim, and Michael McCarter will serve as interim editor overseeing standards across the USA Today Network.
Her exit marks the second editor to leave after a short stint at USA Today, with Monica Richardson confirming her departure and thanking her for her contributions.
Bohan told staff the move reflected 'many challenges facing our industry' and said 'I am tremendously proud of the work we did, including audience-first storytelling, watchdog journalism and deeply reported narrative stories,' at the fourth-largest U.S. paper by print circulation.
