Jim McCloskey Makes Move From Staunton, VA To Biloxi, MS
Jim McCloskey, the longtime cartoonist and ad sales guy at Staunton, Virginia's
News-Leader has taken a similar position at the
Sun Herald in Biloxi, Mississippi. The ability to get someone experienced at two newspaper gigs seems like it would enough of an attraction it's a wonder we don't hear about more hyphenates at papers like these. According to the article, McCloskey is in his late 40s with two of three kids out of the house, so a late-period career move seems a natural, too. The
Sun Herald reports a bit more than twice the number of daily and Sunday copies sold than the Virginia paper, at least according to a cursory look of what's available information-wise on wikipedia.
