NBC News and MSNBC have hired Dylan Byers away from CNN to serve as a senior media reporter for the network. His beat for NBC will focus on many of the same topics he covered for CNN — Hollywood and Silicon Valley — and he will remain based out of Los Angeles.
“In this new role, Dylan will cover the meeting point of media, entertainment and technology — from his perch in Los Angeles — and bring insight and context to this transformative moment. The impact of big tech is far-reaching — changing our culture, politics, commerce and much more,” say network heads Noah Oppenheim and Phil Griffin.
