Jemima Khan, 8 June 2011:
"I am thrilled with the opportunity to be associate editor of the Independent and i. I am a huge fan of both papers and am very excited to be able to work with a talented team of writers and editors."
Jemima Khan, 17 October 2011:
"I am delighted to become a permanent part of the exceptional team at the New Statesman. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Independent but the challenge of a wider role at the New Statesman was too tempting."
Khan of course was hugely successful as guest editor of the New Statesman back in April this year. Her ability to attract guest contributor Hugh Grant gave the New Statesman a real scoop when his account of secretly recording a conversation with News Of The World phone hacker Paul McMullan went viral on social networks.
Now Khan just needs to follow that. No pressure then.
