Wall Street Journal editor Emma Tucker. Ball, 37, was promoted to the job in June, after her predecessor, Kristina O’Neill, was abruptly pushed out by Emma Tucker, The Wall Street Journal’s editor-in-chief. After ousting O’Neill, Tucker took out Neal Lipschutz and Jason Anders, both éminence grise deputy editors of the news pages. In 2018, as luxury advertisers continued their shift away from print, O’Neill hired Ball from GQ to build out WSJ.’s web presence. Tucker, used to running smaller and scrappier newsrooms, was never going to keep O’Neill and Berger around.
