More appointments news? Michael Smellie has been appointed as Bertelsmann's new President of Asia Pacific Media Development, reporting directly to the conglomerate's Chief Executive Gunter Thielen. In his new role, he will represent the company's existing interests in Asia, as well as acquiring and setting up new business in the east, with a particular focus on China initially. As you will all no doubt remember, Smellie's departure from SonyBMG last year precipitated a bit of a power struggle at the merged company, and lots of gossip here in the CMU Daily in recent months.
