P. Steven Ainsley, the publisher of the Boston Globe, said he will retire Jan. 1, capping a three-year stint in which the paper and the rest of industry experienced sharp declines in advertising revenue and paid circulation.
Chris Mayer, currently senior vice president of circulation and operations, will succeed Ainsley as the Globe’s publisher.
Ainsley most recently battled Globe unions to get steep concessions for The New York Times Co., the Boston paper’s cash-strapped parent. The Times Co. put the money-losing Globe on the sale block, but recently said it would keep the paper after dramatic cost improvements.
