WCPO News Director Chip Mahaney is out the door at the Scripps station, but he’s not leaving the company.

Mahaney came to WCPO back in November 2016. Mahaney was working at Scripps as a national director of news recruitment.

Now he kind of heads back to the same job.

In his new role at Scripps, he will be recruiting and mentoring journalists, either still in school or seeking or working their first or second job in this business. Because let’s be honest, stations want to hire kids, cuz they come young and cheap.

WCPO General Manager Jeff Brogan sent an internal email to the staff and it was obtained by FTVLive.

Don’t ask me why it’s spaced so weird, I guess that’s how they do it in the Natty:
