Business columnist and blogger Henry Unger has been named the Sunday business editor at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Unger tells Talking Biz News that he may still write the occasional column. He became a columnist in 2009 after working as the sports and enterprise business editor.

The Sunday section is the only standalone business section for the Atlanta paper. During the rest of the week, the business section appears inside the A section.

In 20 years at the paper, Henry Unger has spent most of his time covering a variety of business beats, including Coca-Cola Co., Turner Broadcasting and sports business. Unger, a native of the Bronx, N.Y., also was deputy business editor and was in charge of the paper’s coverage of the G-8 Summit on Sea Island in 2004.

Before coming to Atlanta, the Queens College graduate worked as a journalist for several news organizations in Los Angeles, including the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner.
