Anderson Elevated at Register
N. Christian Anderson, editor of the Orange County Register, has been promoted to associate publisher.
Anderson and John Schueler, vice president of circulation, will divide the duties of the former general manager, the Register said. Anderson’s titles are executive vice president and associate publisher. Schueler is executive vice president and general manager.
The general manager slot was vacated this week when Richard A. Wallace was promoted to the new position of vice president of corporate affairs for the Register’s parent, Freedom Newspapers Inc.
Successors to Anderson and Schueler have not been named, according to R. David Threshie, publisher of the Register.
Anderson, who came to the Register in 1980, is credited with giving the paper broader news coverage and a strong visual style.
The Register, California’s third-largest daily paper, won two Pulitzer prizes under Anderson.
Schueler was hired as vice president of circulation last year.
He was formerly president of New England Newspapers, which publishes in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
