Register-Guard in Oregon adds business section on Wednesdsay and Friday

January 8, 2006

The Register-Guard, the daily newspaper in Eugene, Ore., announced in the Sunday paper that it would add section fronts for the business section on Wednesdays and Fridays. It’s nice to see a newspaper expanding its business news hole rather than contracting it.

“Readers have complained for a long time about not being able to locate the Business section,” said managing editor Dave Baker in a story. “We should now be able to give Business a section-front placement on most weekdays.”

It should be noted that former SABEW board member Christian Wihtol is an editor at the Register-Guard. He is now the team editor for public affairs and local government.
