Ragan Robinson, the business editor of the Gaston Gazette in North Carolina, has become the paper’s news editor.
Gaston is west of Charlotte.
A story on its website states that Robinson will be “responsible for editing stories and helping plan local news coverage, the news editor (or at least the successful news editor) works with reporters, helps gauge community interest, and acts as a liaison between the paper’s writers and its other departments.
“She likes to check the weather forecast while at work. That’s because the app that came loaded on her iPhone identifies The Gazette office as being located in Ragan Village.
“Robinson has worked as business editor for The Gazette since September 2010. A former reporter who has covered schools, government and the occasional large or misshapen vegetable, she previously worked for The Hickory Daily Record as the publication’s entertainment editor.”
