Augusta Chronicle names deputy business editor

Joe Hotchkiss, who has been writing editorials and columns for The Augusta Chronicle for the past 13 years, is now the paper’s deputy business editor.

Business editor Damon Cline writes, “He’ll be helping out with day-to-day business coverage for The Chronicle while I focus my attention on a special Chronicle publication this summer.

“I can’t give away too many details, but – to paraphrase George Zimmer – you’re going to like the way it looks. I guarantee it.

“As for Joe, I’ve worked with him in various capacities for more than a decade and can say unequivocally he is more than capable of the task. So if you meet him at a business function, feel free to say hello. I just might be with him, so you can say hello to me, too.”
