Having spent my entire career in business journalism, I’ve lost count of the number of people, including family and friends, whose eyes have glazed over while I explained what exactly a business reporter does. And when other reporters and editors learn I’ve always wanted to cover business, it often draws a look of surprise.
Business news often has the stigma of being too complex, boring or disconnected from the daily struggles of the average consumer. But I’ve always found it fascinating because businesses impact so much of our daily lives, whether it’s the inconvenience of not finding a store employee to help you or the excitement of your company giving you that hard-earned raise.
So that’s why I’m excited to announce the Sun-Times is launching its new Money section Monday, New Year’s Day, with me as its editor. Chances are you’ve seen the new section online or in Monday’s print edition.
