Erm… new job? What new job? Confusion at Cision

This rather exposes my high-level research methods for our Smart Moves column, but thought it was funny.

Yesterday’s Cision Media Bulletin reported that:

Katy Guest has joined The Independent newspaper as Deputy Literary Editor … and The Independent Magazine Rhiannon Harries has started as the Editorial Assistant.

So this morning, I dropped them both an email to find out more so I could write a little nib for our site. Rather swiftly two emails came back: both along the lines of ‘new job, what new job?’ In fact, Harries hasn’t changed her job at all, and Guest tells me she has been deputy literary editor for 18 months.

Not quite so up-to-date job news then…
