LA Biz Journal hires two new reporters

The Los Angeles Business Journal has hired two new reporters for its staff, according to an email from managing editor Jonathan Diamond.

Kay Chinn, a recent graduate of master’s program at USC’s Annenberg School for Communications and Journalism, will be covering trade and manufacturing.

Subrina Hudson, also a recent Annenberg master’s graduate, will be covering the local advertising and public relations industries.

Hudson fills a long-vacant spot, and Chinn replaces Ryan Faughnder, who held the same beat.

The Los Angeles Business Journal has an editorial staff of 12 people. It is part of a company that also owns the San Diego Business Journal, the Orange County Business Journal and the San Fernando Valley Business Journal.
