Senior Editor
Sean is a senior editor at The Verge, a very good website he helped found in 2011. He thrives at the intersection of gaming, technology, and toys, with a side of consumer advocacy because companies just can't help themselves, can they?
Sean previously led breaking news teams at The Verge and CNET and the reviews program at Gizmodo. He also has that voice.
Ethics statement, June 2023: Sean's wife is employed by Apple as a video producer. He therefore does not currently report or edit stories about Apple products or Apple as a company.

But that won’t stop the legendary film composer from getting his own documentary film about his life and career, produced by (and featuring interviews with) Steven Spielberg, Kathleen Kennedy, Ron Howard, and many more.
“Music by John Williams” will premiere at AFI Fest on October 23rd and hit Disney Plus on November 1st.
