this is part of Hartman Newspapers. I would avoid unless completely desperate

 

Three years ago, the Terrell Tribune had an opening for a sports editor. Now, it's a sports/GA reporter? Any of you know what happened to make this something other than just a sports position? Is Todd Jorgenson still there? I know he started as the sports editor and then advanced to a higher position there.
