New biz editor at California paper

The San Luis Obispo Tribune has a new business editor in Antonio Prado. He replaces Julie Lynem, who becomes enterprise editor for the paper.

A story Friday stated, “Prado, a former economics reporter who has been an assistant city editor for the past six years, has assumed responsibility for daily and Sunday business news coverage. He will continue to oversee South County news coverage.

“Prado, 38, joined The Tribune in February 2002 as a senior staff writer covering county government and health care. He was promoted to assistant city editor that fall, shepherding — among other issues — the complex Los Osos sewer coverage.

“Before moving to this county, he was an economics writer at Investor’s Business Daily, a national newspaper based in Los Angeles. There, he covered issues affecting the economy such as Federal Reserve policy decisions and the bursting of the dot-com bubble in 2000.

“Prado also has reported at the Santa Barbara News-Press, and the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin. In addition, he covered the municipal bond market and government finance in the western United States at the Los Angeles bureau of The Bond Buyer, a national newspaper based in New York.”
