Guthrie named DDT publisher
Matt Guthrie, former publisher of The Petal News and Lamar Times, has been named publisher of the Delta Democrat Times in Greenville. All three papers are owned by Jackson-based Emmerich Newspapers.
Prior to returning to Mississippi, Guthrie was publisher of the Fayette County News in Georgia. He succeeds Ed Nichols, who at the time of his departure was also publisher of the semi-weekly Clarksdale Press Register.
