Jay Greene
Seattle Times business editor Becky Bisbee sent out the following staff hire announcement:
We’re pleased to announce that Jay Greene is returning to The Seattle Times.
Jay covered Microsoft for us in 1998-99 before going to BusinessWeek. He left the magazine when Bloomberg took over to write a book, “Design is how it works.” He hooked up with CNET two years ago. He’s been covering tech for them. For us, he’ll be focusing on Amazon.com.
Jay will start July 29. He will report to tech editor Mark Watanabe. Please welcome him back.
Business reporter Amy Martinez, who was the backbone of the “Amazon: Behind the smile project” last year, is moving into the jobs and economy slot vacated by Drew DeSilver.
Amy joined The Times in 2006 to cover commercial real estate and more recently retailers, large (Nordstrom) and small (retail report column).
Amy has an incredible knack for getting people to share their stories so we look forward to her coverage of the new normal, from the 1 percenters to those who have been hit the hardest during the Great Recession.
She’ll continue to write about major news at Nordstrom and other large public companies as events allow.
