Good to hear about somebody hiring. Is this the job Todd Adams had? Or perhaps an additional hire?

 

Is this Nick's old job before he went to NHL.com?

 

They're hiring while everyone in the newsroom has been offered a buyout? Alarums!

 

Todd's old job.

 

They gotta move fast before one of the higher-ups realizes the position can be cut.

 

Curiosity if there is any word?

 

And somewhat related Detroit question: Did the Detroit News name a sports editor?

 

I'm not even sure if they posted the position. I know one of the reporters and they weren't sure what was going on back in December.

 

Jim Russ is the new Sports Editor for The News. He was previously the online boss.

 

Spot filled apparently with a guy from Knoxville.
