Dave Perozek, metro editor at the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, has been appointed managing editor. Commenting on his new role, he said:

“The past two and a half years I’ve spent as metro editor have been among the most challenging and rewarding of my career. I feel I have accumulated enough knowledge and leadership skills under the mentorship of Lisa Thompson to take the next step.

“I am extremely proud of the work we as journalists do here and want to do all I can to ensure that work continues, while striving to serve our readers the best we can.”

Before this, Perozek held the post of education reporter.
