Maureen Wallenfang, who has written the consumer business column The Buzz for the Appleton Post-Crescent in Wisconsin for the past 19 years, is leaving the paper.
She has accepted a buyout offer.
Wallenfang writes, “Readers have been crucial to the success of The Buzz, my consumer business column that ran every Sunday and got more than two million page views a year. I appreciate each and every one of you who sent in questions, answered my calls or held my feet to the fire.
“I also had opportunities to write in-depth business stories that garnered a number of Wisconsin Newspaper Association honors. I stepped up to the podium in Madison in March last year to accept the best business reporter of the year award.
“Some of my favorite stories over the years were those about the people behind the companies.”
