Antonia Merola has been appointed news editor of the paid-for weekly Crewe Chronicle. She joins from the paper from the Shropshire Star where she was a senior reporter.
Merola, 25, studied journalism at Staffordshire University and began her career with North Wales Newspapers where she rose to become a chief reporter before joining the Star.
She told How-Do she was “really looking forward to the new challenge and working in Cheshire, a new patch for me.”
The Crewe Chronicle has an audited circulation of just over 20,000 copies a week.
Merola joins an editorial team of five with an additional dedicated sports editor.
While at North Wales Newspapers, Merola became one of the first journalists in Wales to gain the Newspaper Society’s diploma in journalism.
