ROME (Reuters) - Italian ex-prime minister Matteo Renzi said on Wednesday he would take up a new job as the editor of a newspaper - without quitting his political career as a senator and leader of a centrist party.

He will lead Il Riformista, a small libertarian newspaper known for its criticism of Italy's justice system, a subject on which Renzi has written a book.
