John Leacock has been named the interim business editor of the Albuquerque Journal.
Matthew Narvaiz of The Journal writes, “Leacock said he is excited to work with the Journal’s business desk during a time when the newspaper is going through a digital transformation.
“‘The news business has seen constant change in recent years, driven by the rise of the internet and social media, as well as demographic shifts in the U.S.,’ Leacock said. ‘But in that time, I’ve had the opportunity to wear several hats in the newsroom and stay abreast of changes and innovations.
“‘I’ll be working to make sure the Journal continues to bring important business coverage to our readers, as the city and state move forward in these challenging times.’
“Leacock had been a copy editor with the Journal since October.”
