A longtime airlines reporter and a personal finance columnist are among those who have taken buyout offers from the Dallas Morning News and will be leaving the newspaper’s business desk.
Terry Maxon started as a reporter at the Oklahoma Journal in 1973. He worked at the Dallas Times Herald and San Jose Mercury News in addition to his 30 years at the Dallas Morning News. Since 1990, he has covered airlines and aviation except for five years during which he reported on energy, technology and legal affairs.
Maxon writes a well-known blog called “Airline Biz.” Last month, at the conclusion of American Airlines’ earnings call, CEO Doug Parker stated, “When I want to know what is going on in our industry, I read Terry’s blog. I learn as much from that as anything else externally that I can find because it is always true and it is always well-informed.”
Pamela Yip has been the personal finance columnist and senior aging issues writer for the Morning News since 1999. Before that, she spent 10 years as a business reporter for the Houston Chronicle.
Yip graduated from Cal State-Sacramento in 1979.
The last day for both is Sept. 11.
