The Columbus Dispatch, the daily metro newspaper for one of the most dynamic cities in the Midwest, seeks a reporter to cover the region’s powerful business scene. From Fortune 100 companies to a thriving creative class, Columbus is known for its collegial, get-it-done-together spirit. That’s not to say it’s predictable; the city offers plenty of opportunities for watchdog stories that right wrongs.
