Neil Reynolds new editor-at-large of Irving papers

Former Vancouver Sun editor-in-chief Neil Reynolds has been named editor-at-large by Brunswick News Inc., owned by the Irving family of New Brunswick. Reynolds said he would be making some changes, including instituting a policy at the company’s papers never to use anonymous sources. This comes six weeks after Jamie Irving left his job as publisher of the New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal after the newspaper apologized to Prime Minister Stephen Harper for reporting he had slipped a communion wafer into his pocket at a funeral mass for former governor-general Romeo LeBlanc. Harper insisted he had followed religious protocol to consume the wafer.  Jamie Irving is returning to Irving-owned Brunswick News Inc. as vice-president, the company also announced Wednesday.
