The Sun’s annual look at our newsroom makeup

The Sun’s annual look at our newsroom makeup


David Nelson

I often field questions about how the Sun is doing, and there’s so many ways to answer.

I’ve shared in columns about our physical changes, in terms of printing a paper or our location at 545 Fifth Street; shifts in frequency and makeup of the print edition and the digital readership patterns driving those decisions; and occasionally about our people. At the end of the day, and whenever we look back and tell the story of the Sun’s digital era, it’s those people who are going to be the most important. This is a reporting staff that I truly feel lucky to work with every day. 

We’re succeeding with this group in a tough environment for journalism, and for the Sun to continue that progress, we need to build an inclusive and diverse workplace where employees are valued and feel empowered. That means working to hire and sustain a workforce that is reflective of our area’s diversity.
