He is formerly editorial director of Brandweek, responsible for creating the story coverage strategy for the newsweekly magazine of marketing from 1992 to 1997. Mr. McManus first worked at Adweek as a reporter covering advertising agencies, clients, and media in 1988 and 1989.

In late 1991, he became executive editor of Mediaweek, until moving over to recast Brandweek.

Previously, Mr. McManus worked for two years on the start-up of Times Mirror Magazines' Sports Inc., the sports business weekly, followed by a brief period as a New York correspondent for The Sporting News.
