[color=#0000FF]Mark Thompson led the BBC in 2004-12[/color]
[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]The NYT appointed the 55-year-old in August, saying his experience in global media made him the "ideal candidate".[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]Mr Thompson led the [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/90841.html]BBC[/url] from 2004-2012, overseeing the British corporation's TV, radio and online services.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]He starts amid one of the worst crisis in the history of the BBC, which forced his successor George Entwistle to quit.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]Mr Entwistle resigned on Saturday after a Newsnight programme report led to a former Tory treasurer being wrongly accused of child abuse.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]Mr Thompson himself faces questions over the BBC's earlier decision to shelve a Newsnight programme about sex abuse claims surrounding the late BBC presenter Jimmy Savile. [/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]The programme was axed while Mr Thompson was still in charge.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]New York Times columnist Joe Nocera has accused the incoming [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/90841.html]CEO[/url] of "appearing wilfully ignorant" about the the Savile scandal.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]Mr Nocera also questioned whether Mr Thompson was the right man for the job.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px][b]'Privilege' [/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]Mr Thompson started his career as a production trainee at the BBC in 1979 before leaving in 2002 to become chief executive of Channel 4 television.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]He later returned to the BBC as director general, finally leaving the corporation on 17 September.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]"Mark is a gifted executive with strong credentials whose leadership at the BBC helped it to extend its trusted brand identity into new digital products and services," said NYT chairman Arthur Sulzberger in a statement in August.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]For his part, Mr Thompson said it was a "privilege" to take on the role.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]"I'm particularly excited to be coming to [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/90841.html]New York Times[/url] Company as it extends its influence digitally and globally," he said.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]The company, which owns the New York Times, International Herald Tribune and the Boston Globe newspapers, posted revenues of $2.3bn (£1.47bn) in 2011.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=12px]The company has been without a chief executive since Janet Robinson stepped down in December 2011.[/size][/font]
