Shani Olisa Hilton (born 1986) is the executive editor at BuzzFeed News.[1]



Early life


Growing up with a journalist father, Hilton began working on the student newspaper in middle school and continued at Bear Creek High School in Stockton, California. [2] She attended Howard University in D.C. and studied journalism.



Career


Only a few years out of college,[3] Hilton joined Buzzfeed in 2013 as senior editor, after working at Washington City Paper.[4] and NBC Washington. She was promoted to executive editor in September 2014.[5]Politico has called her "the youthful conscience of Buzzfeed News"[6] and Recode calls her "Buzzfeed's Newsmaker in Chief."[7] The New York Observer named her to a list of "10 Players in Media You Must Hire."[8]


Hilton is regularly cited as an expert on topics like journalistic ethics,[9]millennial audiences for newsmedia,[10] and diversity in the newsroom.[11] The latter owes particularly to the increased diversity of Buzzfeed staffing under Hilton's tenure, though she has emphasized the remaining room for improvement.[12] She wrote a widely cited essay on the subject in 2014, entitled "Building A Diverse Newsroom Is Work."[13]


Hilton lives in New York City.
