Jennifer Kho loves that Chicago is a "two-newspaper town." She's the new executive editor at one of those two newspapers, the Chicago Sun-Times.

Kho was E&P Publisher Mike Blinder's guest on this 148th episode of E&P Reports vodcast. Prior to being named executive editor, Kho was the managing editor at HuffPost and, before that, managing editor at The Guardian (US). While at HuffPost, she became the director for strategic innovation and created an innovation team. She was laid off by the digital news outlet and spent approximately 14 months looking for a job and bridging the employment gap by offering consultative services.

Kho hadn't even fully moved from Los Angeles to Chicago when the Chicago Sun-Times' newsroom faced the monumental and solemn challenge of reporting on the July 4th mass shooting in Highland Park. That day, a single shooter, with the aid of high-capacity weapons, murdered seven people and injured dozens, terrorizing and traumatizing the community.
