NME deputy editor Martin Robinson has been appointed as the new editor of free weekly men’s title Shortlist.
Robinson, who takes up his new role in June, will replace Terri White who is leaving to join Buzz magazine – The Sun’s new Saturday TV magazine – next month.
Shortlist deputy editor Gershon Portnoi will oversee the title in the interim period.
Robinson said: ‘The magazine has been the outstanding publishing success story of recent times, and I’ll be working with the superb team there to make it even better.
