TVLine Promotes Mitovich To Editor-in-Chief

TVLine on Wednesday announced the promotion of Matt Webb Mitovich to editor-in-chief, effective immediately. The announcement comes on the heels of TVLine notching its second-best traffic month in its seven-year history (May 2018; per comScore).

Mitovich will report to Michael Ausiello, who is segueing into the newly created post of president and editorial director of TVLine.

“TVLine would not be the success it is today without Matt,” said Ausiello. “Not only is he a traffic powerhouse, but his editorial instincts are second to none. At his core, he remains a diehard TV fan. He loves and respects this medium. As TVLine gets ready to enter its second decade amid an unstoppable #PeakTV landscape, I’m thrilled, honored and relieved to have Matt by my side.”

Since joining TVLine in November 2010 to prepare for the site’s 2011 launch, Mitovich has taken on increased editorial oversight with each passing year. In his new role, he will oversee the day-to-day editorial operations of TVLine as well as play a major role in charting the site’s path forward.
