News Corp executive Greg Clayman has left his position with the company to join video distribution firm Vimeo as its general manager of audience networks. The news was first reported by Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-10-18/news-corp-executive-clayman-is-said-to-leave-for-diller-s-vimeo.html), and later confirmed by Vimeo.
Clayman had previously served as publisher of the short-lived (http://techcrunch.com/2012/12/03/the-dailys-final-day-about-100-employees-in-the-newsroom-little-inkling-of-layoffs/) digital-only news publication The Daily (http://techcrunch.com/2011/02/02/daily-demo-video/), and after that took on a new role as News Corp's EVP of digital strategy and business development. At IAC-owned Vimeo, Clayman will report to Vimeo CEO Kerry Trainor and will be tasked with growing the number of viewers who tune in to videos on its platform. That number is currently around 100 million, which isn't bad but could be better.
