background in cross-media strategy, digital advertising, and
product management. His skill set is ideally suited to achieving
our strategic initiatives to broaden the product portfolio and
accelerate subscriber and revenue growth.”
O’Toole continued, “I want to thank Jeff for his remarkable
leadership as CEO. He successfully launched new digital products,
with daily newsletters, invigorated websites and a new Makers Club
digital membership, while being acutely focused on driving value
