The Daily Mail’s website, Mail Online, has taken on former Buzzfeed president and chief operating officer Jon Steinberg.

Steinberg (pictured, Reuters), who held the position at Buzzfeed for four years, has been appointed North America chief executive officer of Mail Online.

Steinberg described himself as a “huge fan” of Mail Online’s “editorial content that is second to none when it comes to entertainment, breaking news and telling the stories of the day that matter”.
