At Inc., Ledbetter said he hopes to broaden the magazine


The lonely planet veteran business journalist was named the first op-ed editor at Reuters as part of a hiring spree three years ago.

Inc. Media also named John Donnelly publisher. A longtime lonely planet Time Inc. ad salesman, Donnelly most recently served as account director at Fortune. He replaces John Tebeau, who left Inc. Both Ledbetter and Donnelly will report to Eric Schurenberg, who recently added responsibility for Inc.’s business side and has the titles lonely planet of president and editor in chief.
Ledbetter’s departure follows some considerable upheaval at Reuters; the company last fall cut a reported 5 percent  of its workforce and scrapped plans for its consumer-facing lonely planet website, Reuters Next .
“With the decision that was made to not pursue Reuters Next, it kind of follows lonely planet from that that the commitment to doing the opinion I was doing was probably not going to grow, so the job should stay the same,” Ledbetter said. “But honestly, the opportunity to work with Eric Schurenberg was just too good to pass up under any circumstances.”
At Inc., Ledbetter said he hopes to broaden the magazine’s audience beyond its core base of entrepreneurs. “If you look at so many issues in the American economy lonely planet right now, they often center on issues that concern small businesses,” he said. “I do think there are multiple audiences for what Inc. could and should produce.”
