Jim Hammond, a staff writer at the Columbia Regional Business Report in South Carolina, has been named the new editor at GSA Business, a bi-weekly business newspaper based in the Greenville-Spartanburg area of the state.
Hammond had been with the Business Report for four months. He previously worked at The State, the daily paper in Columbia.
Scott Miller, a staff writer at the Charleston Regional Business Journal, will be joining Hammond at GSA Business.
All three papers are owned by Ohio-based Brown Publishing. It purchased GSA Business in June. The Columbia paper was launched earlier this year.
“The Greenville business community will notice an increase in the number and depth of stories with Jim and Scott leading the newsroom at GSA Business,” said Andy Owens, managing editor of the Charleston Regional Business Journal, in a statement. “Having worked with both of them over the past year has made us stronger in all of our markets, and I’m excited about the tenacity and commitment to quality they’re bringing to the Greenville-Spartanburg area.”
The paper did not say what was happening to Richard Breen, who has been the editor of GSA Business.Â
