Could Terry Rombeck be leaving LJWorld?
While browsing journalismjobs.com, (Not looking for new job — yet) I came across this:
The Lawrence Journal-World, winner of the 2005 Kansas Press Association's Sweepstakes Award and leader in the converged media arena, seeks a staff writer to cover Kansas University. Candidates must have proven experience covering everything from in-depth enterprise stories, to breaking news as well as complex projects. We're looking to add a journalist to our team who is productive, can file clean, compelling copy on deadline, is innovative and is committed to working in a converged news room. The successful applicant must have strong writing and people skills, at least three years of daily newspaper experience, demonstrated impartiality and strong knowledge of AP style.
We offer an excellent benefits package including a 401(k), plus employee discounts on your newspaper and cable subscriptions, and telephone. Pre-employment drug screen and physical required.
CANDIDATES WITHOUT REQUISITE EXPERIENCE NEED NOT APPLY. Send resume and samples of your work to hrapplications@ljworld.com or ATTN: HR Director/Reporter/Staff Writer 609 New Hampshire, Lawrence, KS 66044. EOE
If this is true, who would replace the man that has scooped us too many bloody times?

HOLY SHIT
Neil, your post makes me want to do a happy dance.
The scourge of every Kansan reporter, leaving at last.
Someone at the LJWord, please update us! This is the biggest story I've heard all month! And a new reporter...it's going to take him/her YEARS to build up Terry's contacts, right? The Kansan should RULE the year.

From what I know, Terry is moving to the features beat. But that is just second-hand, unconfirmed information.
Seriously, Ms. Burhenn?
