Sun Taps Local Mary Corey for Top Editorial Position

Mary Corey, a Baltimore native and 23-year veteran of The Baltimore Sun who got her start as an intern at the paper, has been named senior vice president and director of content, The Sun's top editorial position. Corey becomes the first woman to lead The Sun newsroom in its 173-year history, replacing Montgomery Cook, who left the paper earlier this year. Unlike Cook, who many Sun staffers disdained as an unqualified outsider in our 2009 story on the state of the paper, Corey is generally well-liked in the newsroom.
