ST. LOUIS (AP) - Lee Enterprises Inc. announced Thursday that it has named Ian Caso president and publisher of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The newspaper reports that Caso succeeds Ray Farris, who has been promoted to operating vice president and vice president of advertising at Lee, the Post-Dispatch’s parent company.
