Jack Miller has joined Wisconsin Media Group as a sports and community reporter in the suburban Madison area, the group announced Monday.
He replaces Benjamin Pierce, who left to join the Trempealeau County Times newsroom in Whitehall. Pierce had joined the former Unified Newspaper Group in April after nearly four years at The (Janesville) Gazette.
Miller will cover sports for the Wisconsin Media Group’s newly acquired suburban Madison publications, the Fitchburg Star, The Oregon Observer, The Stoughton Courier Hub and The Verona Press. He also will handle some community news coverage for the group, primarily focusing on the Fitchburg area.
