Top AOL Media Exec Marty Moe To Depart (Other Rumors of David Eun Ankling Not So Much)

According to sources close to the situation, one of AOL’s top, longtime media execs, Marty Moe (pictured here), is leaving the company.

Sources said the reasons were personal and Moe was not currently taking another job.

UPDATE: BoomTown just obtained the internal memo on the departure, which is below.

Moe is currently SVP of the Media unit’s News & Information Group at AOL (AOL), although he has held a number of other content posts under different execs at the long-struggling company.

Moe’s former boss Bill Wilson left the company in February, and Moe now works for President of Media and Studios David Eun, who came to AOL from a content job at the YouTube unit of Google (GOOG).

While there have been a spate of rumors recently that Eun was the one on his way out, sources at AOL said such speculation was inaccurate.

There has most definitely been tension in the media group since Eun began making massive changes in its management and strategy.

Media, in fact, has been the main focus of CEO Tim Armstrong, who is betting big on content offerings and the premium advertising that could be sold around it.
