The Humboldt County Newspapers is announcing one change of position and one new addition to its staff.
Kent Thompson has been named general manager/editor of the Humboldt County Newspapers.
Thompson, who has over 40 years of journalism experience, has served as news editor of the Humboldt Independent for the last 15 years. Jerry Wiseman and Kristin Grabinoski, co-publishers, made the announcement last week.
Wiseman and Grabinoski purchased the Humboldt Independent Newspaper, the Humboldt Reminder and Humboldt NOW on July 1.
The publishers have also announced that Kaycee Matheason has joined the Humboldt Newspapers staff as a sales representative.
Matheason has spent the last four years leading the sales team for the Palo Alto County Newspapers, where she worked for co-publishers Jerry Wiseman and Grabinoski.
Both Thompson and Matheason are excited in their new positions. Read more about it in this week's Humboldt Independent, your trusted source for local news and sports.
