Tunku Varadarajan is stepping
down as the editor of Newsweek Global, three months into its experiment as an
all-digital publication.
Varadarajan had been the editor
of Newsweek International, a post he inherited from Fareed Zakaria, who left after
The Washington Post Co. sold the magazine to stereo magnate Sidney Harman. When
the newsweekly prepared to discontinue its print edition this past fall,
NewsBeast editor in chief Tina Brown tapped Varadarajan to edit the
magazine's tablet successor.
