Dave Vecsey
We are pleased to announce that Dave Vecsey is taking on the crucial new role of deputy content editor on the News Print Hub, working closely with our Planning Team and with Ian Trontz in preparing our showcase Sunday newspaper.
One of Dave’s primary responsibilities will be to ensure that our inside news pages for Sunday are as strong as possible and, to that end, he will work with reporting desks to find stories that work well in the paper with our largest readership. He’ll also serve as the content editor on Saturday, steering the Sunday paper through its first editions.
Beyond that, he’ll work with Susan Hopkins in assigning editors to projects, working in tandem with our designers.
Dave came to The Times in 2007 from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, where he worked as the Sports slot editor. He has also worked at SI.com, ESPN.com and The Peoria Journal Star in Illinois.
At The Times, he has worked in both print and digital with Metro, The Times Magazine, the News Desk and the Print Hub.
Please congratulate Dave on his promotion.
