A brain drain at the Houston Chronicle?
Banjo Jones takes note of the fact that the Chronicle seems to have lost a great deal of talent recently:
A former Houston Chronicle news gal, Jennifer Sizemore, has been named the head of MSNBC.COM.
Sizemore was a deputy managing editor at the Houston daily before she decamped to the brighter lights of MSNBC.
One can hardly blame her for leaving the Chron in order to land such a prestigious position. She probably passes Keith Olbermann in the hallway every once in while, which must be a bigger thrill than seeing Jeff Cohen at the water cooler.
Sizemore's defection, however, again raises the recurring question of whether there's a brain drain going on at the Houston daily.
Banjo recaps some of the notable departures here.
