Virginian-Pilot makes changes to business section

Steve Gunn, the editor of The Virginian-Pilot in Norfolk, writes about changes to the paper’s business coverage.

Gunn writes, “Our business section will focus more on your day-to-day life, so we’re making several changes and additions. First, the section has a new name: Work & Money. Many of the stories will reflect that theme, including personal finance and workplace issues. We’re adding a weekly investment column by John Dorfman, who used to appear in The Pilot regularly, and launching an occasional series called ‘Made in Hampton Roads’ about things made right here in our region.

“As many of you know, we publish a weekly business newspaper called Inside Business, Hampton Roads Business Journal. Each week, we’ll pick a great story from Inside Business and reprint it inside the Work & Money section. (On a related note: you can now have the full Inside Business paper delivered with your Sunday Pilot. See details inside today’s Work & Money section.)”
