N.C. TRIBUNE/BUSINESS NC Editor and "CHATTER WITH BNC" podcast host COLIN CAMPBELL is joining UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA News-Talk WUNC (NORTH CAROLINA PUBLIC RADIO)/CHAPEL HILL as CAPITOL Bureau Chief, starting FEBRUARY 20th. He replaces JEFF TIBERII, who will be co-hosting a new daily news show with Race & Southern Culture Reporter LEONEDA INGE on WUNC to be launched later this year.
"I've been listening to public radio news since I was a teenager, so I'm thrilled to bring my coverage of NORTH CAROLINA politics and government to WUNC,” said CAMPBELL. “JEFF TIBERII has set a high standard for news stories and podcasts in this role, and I'm looking forward to continuing that tradition."
“COLIN is one of the most well-respected members of the CAPITOL reporting corps,” said News Dir. BRENT WOLFE. “Our audience will benefit greatly from his experience and deep contacts developed over many years of covering politics in NORTH CAROLINA. We’re excited COLIN will build on our longstanding commitment to bringing important and in-depth political coverage across all platforms.”
