I’m happy to announce some exciting editorial staff changes and additions that will enable us to expand upon our area-best community media coverage here in San Juan Capistrano.
Starting last week, I’ve promoted Andrea Swayne to the role of Group Senior Editor. Most of you know Andrea as the editor of The Dana Point Times and a regular contributor to The Dispatch. She will now oversee editorial efforts for all three of our community papers (The Dispatch, SC Times and DP Times). Dispatch City Editor Brian Park will report to Andrea, as will Sports Editor Steve Breazeale. In Dana Point, we welcome a brand new employee—Andrea Papagianis—to the role of City Editor in Dana Point.
All of these moves will help deepen our resources as we expand our news reporting, sports coverage and online efforts.
As the only locally-owned, community newspaper and media business, The Dispatch strives to provide you, our reader, with local news you can use. While others might try to imitate us, we continue to relish our role in helping provide you with information that will help you take advantage of all that San Juan Capistrano has to offer.
Please join me in congratulating our team on these changes.
