He joined The Sun from the Daily Mail where he was deputy editor, and from 2009-2014 he was editor of the Daily Telegraph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rupert Murdoch, executive chairman News Corp, said: \u201cTony is an exceptional editor with an expert and experienced eye on creating the best news package. His deft approach will be an asset to The Times in the years ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robert Thomson, chief executive News Corp, said: \u201cTony is a journalist of integrity and ingenuity.

I am acutely conscious of the heritage of The Times but the title also has an exciting future. We have made significant strides with our digital transition &#8211; and there are more to come &#8211; but world-class storytelling will always be at the heart of what we do. With the most talented newsroom on Fleet Street, I am confident we can succeed in delivering for Times readers. Thank you to Rupert, Robert and Rebekah for their faith in me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris Longcroft, EVP, Publisher, Times Newspapers, said: \u201cThe Times is in its strongest financial position for decades, which allows us to invest in our digital business as we grow subscriptions and grow advertising.
