Ford Gunter is the new business reporter at The Garden Island, Kauai’s only daily newspaper. He comes from a suburban paper near Houston, where he also covered business.
The article notes, “As the business reporter for Kauai’s only daily newspaper, Gunter feels staying dry will lend itself to a more professional image as he begins to reach out to Kauai’s business community. Not only will Gunter cover the major players in his beat such as the Kauai Island Utility Cooperative, Wilcox Memorial Hospital and the tourism industry, he will inform readers about the mom-and-pop businesses that dot the island as well.
“Aside from a vacation on O’ahu, this will be Gunter’s first real taste of life in the Islands. Gunter replaces former The Garden Island business reporter Andy Gross who left the newspaper in November.”

Dang. If I'd have known they had biz reporters in locales like this, I might have stayed in the business. Jeez
You're mistaken. News isn't that slow, it's just not well-reported. You should have seen the article about the guy who followed the business reporter who followed Gunter. (By the way, if you're sensing a pattern on high turnover, your senses are in tune with the island.)
