Nielsen Business Media on Tuesday announced that Alison Fahey, veteran editor of Adweek, has been promoted to publisher/editorial director for the brand.

Fahey, in turn, has tapped Mike Chapman, a well-respected journalist with 22 years of editorial experience, including eMarketer and The Economist Group, to succeed her as the editor of Adweek. Fahey's promotion is effective immediately; Chapman will assume his new role on May 15.

In their new roles, Fahey and Chapman will work together to drive the Adweek brand across all platforms--in print, online and face-to-face. Both Fahey and Chapman will be based in New York. Chapman will report to Fahey, while Fahey continues to report to Crow.
