USA Today Hires Full-Time Beyoncé Reporter Caché McClay

McClay to Provide Unbiased Coverage of Beyoncé's Influence on Music, Business, and Fanbase

  • USA Today has hired Caché McClay as its first-ever full-time Beyoncé reporter, working out of the Nashville newsroom for the Gannett-owned Tennessean newspaper.
  • McClay, a former producer at TMZ and BBC News, will focus on the star's influence on music and business, as well as her fanbase, the BeyHive.
  • McClay's role is not to appease the fanbase, but to provide unbiased coverage of Beyoncé's cultural impact and business ventures.
  • The hiring comes after Gannett, USA Today's parent company, recently hired a full-time Taylor Swift reporter.
  • The move is part of Gannett's strategy to connect with audiences in new ways, despite recent job cuts.
