A story states, “‘We have placed a re-dedicated emphasis on Cobb business news and we feel Katy Ruth’s talent will help us greatly enhance this effort as we move forward,’ Mitchell said. ‘Katy Ruth has become a top-notch member of our news team. We have the utmost confidence in her insightful and innovative reporting skills, and we feel her experience and enthusiasm for the job certainly will strengthen our Cobb business coverage.’
