The Bulletin has hired several right-wing employees, two of whom are in senior political positions within the moderates and Christian Democrats. But also people with liberal backgrounds are included in the team’s lineup before the launch and some can be found on the left wing.
It will not be a full-time job for Lars Leijonborg when he begins writing chronicles, but based on what Expressen has experienced, he will be with “a bit from time to time” in the Bulletin, launching the project with his conservative site.
Lars Leijonborg was leader of the People’s Party during the years 1997–2007 and Minister of Education 2006–2007. When he resigned as party leader, he was Minister of Higher Education and Research until 2009.
Since Leijonborg left politics, he has served as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Utbildningsradion UR and Mittmedia and Chairman of the Karolinska Institutet, which he left prematurely in the wake of the Macchiarini affair with the scandalous surgeon Paolo Maccharini.
The editor-in-chief and head of the Bulletin, Paulina Neuding, 38, has also added additional people to her team.
The last names are:
Aleksandra Boscanin, 26, formerly at Göteborgs Posten and Svenska Dagbladet, will be the lead writer.
Blache Sande, 26, left the online magazine Smedjan, run by think tank Timbro. She will be the news editor.
Journalist Per Brinkemo, 60, who has emerged in recent years as an expert on clans and integration, is becoming a columnist.
Last week lead writer Ivar Arpi, 38, left Svenska Dagbladet for the Bulletin.
– Ivar Arpi is a brave and skilled writer. Rightly so, many readers appreciate it very much. I’m sure Ivar’s audience will be even more excited when they hear about his new project, said Paulina Neuding, registered editor of the Bulletin and editor-in-chief of the site.
Many of the recruits come from newsrooms and must have a bourgeois tone. What should the site contain then?
– We invest extensively with special emphasis on opinion and leadership texts, as well as in-depth foreign reports, Paulina Neuding previously said.
