Jerd Smith has been named editor of the North Colorado Business Report, reports Steve Lynn of the paper.
Lynn writes, “Smith has worked as a business editor and reporter for the Rocky Mountain News, Denver Business Journal and Boulder Daily Camera.
“Smith is excited to lead coverage of Northern Colorado business news at a time when traditional media no longer have the resources to provide comprehensive business coverage as well as a niche publication like NCBR, she said.
“‘Business publications have a huge role to play in keeping the community informed,’ she said.
“At the Rocky Mountain News, Smith covered a variety of issues, including finance, energy, technology, telecommunications, water and government. She has won awards for breaking news and investigative journalism from organizations such as the Associated Press and Society of Professional Journalists.”
