Champagne corks fly at 'The Journal' while, three floors up, Daily staffers start job-hunting
To assist the Daily staffers in that effort, there will be an internal job fair on Dec. 19. Several of them have already landed on their feet, including editor Jesse Angelo, who has been promoted to publisher of sister title the New York Post, and veteran gossip Richard Johnson, who had left the Post to become the Daily's Hollywood bureau chief but who is also headed back to the tabloid, according to an announcement this afternoon on his Facebook page.

Rupert Murdoch on big News Corp. re-org: 'Daily' will shut down, Angelo moves to 'New York Post'

'Post' editors called to Garrison country club for day-long digital teach-in

(1)Jesse Angelo says things at his iPad news app, The Daily, are 'going great'
Wearing a light-blue suit and striped tie, Angelo, who was tapped to edit The Daily in 2010 following a meteoric rise at fellow News Corp. publication the New York Post, was onstage in a SoHo conference center for an Internet Week New York panel.
If he was at all frustrated that his publication is "still struggling to break into the national conversation," as The New York Times suggested on The Daily's first birthday several months ago, he didn't show it. More
Coincidence? 'New York Post,' 'Daily,' next-door neighbors at News Corp. HQ, both score big with 'THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN FREAKING' headline
As we noted last week, The New York Post and The Daily are for the most part entirely segregated, though they are siblings with adjacent spaces at News Corp's Sixth Avenue headquarters. They seem, however, to share a brain. Behold the headline about the JetBlue pilot meltdown on the Post's wood today: "THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN FREAKING." And on the cover of today's Daily: "THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN FREAKING." More
Looking for answers for nypost.com, Rupert Murdoch and Col Allan rely on a standby general: Jesse Angelo
Sources tell Capital that Jesse Angelo, editor-in-chief of New Corp.'s standalone "tablet tabloid" The Daily, is expected to become "more involved" in the direction of nypost.com, which has long trailed the website of rival tabloid the Daily News in user-friendliness and page-views.

(1)The Daily, a tablet newspaper for 'everybody,' is as much Apple as News Corp.
Yesterday, at the press launch of Rupert Murdoch's new Ipad newspaper, The Daily, held in a below-grade auditorium at the Guggenheim Museum, a reporter asked Murdoch what demographic The Daily was after. "Upmarket? Downmarket? Men? Women?"
Jesse Angelo, the young and now-dapper 37-year-old News Corp. lifer who is running The Daily, jumped in to answer. He said that when The Daily's C.E.O. first came on board he'd asked the same question, and that Murdoch had answered, "Everybody!" More
