Meet the 'HUM' team:Send a reporter and photographer a.s.a.p.! |

Erma Metzler HUM Online, circulation, advertising |
We occasionally get calls from local
churches asking us to send a reporter and photographer to cover a ribbon
cutting, a presentation or some other important church event. The bad news,
and also the good news, is that we're rarely able to personally comply with
such requests, but rather must opt for other means.
Each edition of the HUM News comes to you with over 100 features and news stories -- more local news and information articles than any other United Methodist newspaper. So, maybe it's not surprising that folks get the impression there's a newsroom full of writers and "shooters" at the ready, here. Our HUM News staff actually consists of just two news gatherers: Matt Carlisle and me. Matt handles Indiana News through an established network of freelance writers and correspondents around the state. I handle Viewpoints, commentaries, nation/world news. Our third staff team member, Erma Metzler, handles ads, circulation and district news pages. The full HUM News Team"The genius" of our operation (as UMCom's Steve Horswill-Johnson once termed it) is in the extensive information network we've built in Indiana. The photos and names on this page represent the people behind the regular bylines. They are church members who also happen to be professional writers or district staffers. We depend on them to be the eyes and ears of HUM to help assure the news is covered throughout one of the largest episcopal areas in the UMC connection. As editor I'm keenly proud of the HUM News Team. The publication to which they contribute their ideas, thoughts and labor has won national recognition for excellence for each of the last 11 years. I applaud and continue to be grateful that these good people have chosen to serve the Church through this communications ministry. |
