Cincinnati biz journal redesigns paper

Rob Daumeyer, the editor of the Cincinnati Business Courier, writes Friday about some design changes made to the paper.

Daumeyer writes, “Our business reporting staff – senior reporters Dan Monk and Lucy May, reporters Steve Watkins, James Ritchie and Jon Newberry and digital producer/reporter Tom Demeropolis – are constantly talking to their sources, digging for the latest scoops, producing a flood of valuable content that we want to bring to you in new, more efficient ways.

“So you’ll see more stories, numbers and facts on each page, designed to make it easier for you to consume.

“You read the Courier because you want to make money. You need to grow your business and build your career. But you’re also busier than ever.

“So we’re pulling apart some of our content and presenting it on new ‘reporter pages.’ Starting on page 4, you’ll see pages branded to our writers. (Monk and Demeropolis are off this week.)”
