Anthony Ha appointed weekend editor This smart play represents the publication’s continued commitment to providing in-depth and diverse coverage of the tech world. A New York City-based technologist and journalist, Ha draws on his experiences from nearly a decade working in the tech journalism industry.
Kocha’s first visit to USIM Ha has a storied career from serving as an editor for major Asian media organizations. For the previous three years he was a tech reporter for Adweek. There, he reported on all the new trends and developments at the collision of technology and advertising. He honed his acumen as a senior editor at VentureBeat. In that role, he programmed editorial content and produced documentary films on the implications of emerging technologies.
Along with his commitment to technology journalism, Ha brings a background in local news reporting. He began his career as a government reporter at the Hollister Free Lance. In doing so, he developed an exceptional bedrock of reporting and storytelling. His quite interesting background includes being VP of content at a venture capital fund. During this role he gained unique perspective into the intersection of technology and investment.
As the weekend editor at TechCrunch, Ha is expected to oversee the publication’s weekend coverage, ensuring that readers receive timely and accurate information about the tech industry. His new role will include curating news articles, writing and editing original content, and hopefully mentoring developing writers in the widening field of technology policy.
