Metro hires Chronicle editor
A Chronicle assistant editor has moved to Metro to become its Media Relations director:
Staff Announcement
Dec. 6, 2005Please note the following new members of METRO's External Affairs team:
Raequel Roberts
Media Relations Director
Raequel comes to us from the Houston Chronicle, where she was Assistant City Editor.Sandra Aponte Salazar
Media Relations Specialist
Sandra joins us from the City of Houston's Municipal Courts, where she was Public Information Officer. Prior to that she worked in media relations for the Houston Police Department (2000 - 2004).You can reach Raequel and Sandra by calling our media hotline: (713) 739-4040.
Ken Connaughton is now Editor/Producer with responsibility for several new communication vehicles being developed.
Of course, the Chronicle is often mistaken for the media relations arm of Metro, so it's unclear why a change in jobs was needed, but whatever.
It does appear as though Metro is attempting to beef up its spin machine, which must be welcome news for the beleaguered Ken Connaughton.
