Comings and goings

Several changes to report at the Daily News of Los Angeles (via LA Observed). Kerry Cavanaugh moves from City Hall to become an editorial writers, John Miller moves from night city editor to full-fledged City Editor, Jason Kandel becomes online news editor, and Barbara Jones takes over as special projects editor.

LANGers should pay attention to the last line of DN Editor Carolina Garcia's memo regarding the Jones move, in which she says Jones will "work closely with Oscar [Garza] as we explore new weekly sections aimed at bringing in new readers for the Daily News and other LANG papers."

When I see "new readers" I generally think "new revenues" and that generally means special advertorial sections. Anyone know what's being planned?
