Daniel Eilemberg joins Fusion as Chief Digital Officer and SVP

Fusion, the new cable and digital network aimed at multicultural millennials (joint venture of ABC and Univision), has hired veteran journalist and new media entrepreneur Daniel Eilemberg to be their Chief Digital Officer (and senior vice president for Fusion). He will oversee all of Fusion’s digital, mobile, and social media platforms – driving toward innovative new ways to develop and deliver content that’s meaningful to a young, diverse America. Eilemberg’s background speaks to the fact that Fusion is truly looking to create a social-first, digital-first culture and content strategy. The executive founded Animal Político and has built it into one of the leading political news and social media properties in Mexico.“Daniel’s experience embodies many of our core values including innovation and irreverence. His decision to launch Animal Político three years ago proves he is not afraid of taking risks and of challenging the conventional wisdom. Daniel’s intuitive understanding of ever-evolving digital platforms and social media will help us connect with our young, highly diverse audience in inventive new ways in the months and years ahead,” says Fusion CEO, Isaac Lee.
