Start the presses: Brookline to get professional news outlet again

See ya, GateHouse or Gannett or whatever you call yourselves these days. A non-profit news startup co-founded by former Globe editorial-page editor Ellen Clegg in Brookline is not only starting up, it's hiring a full-time editor in chief - with "a competitive salary" and everything.

In addition to overseeing newsgathering in the state's largest town, of the sort Gannett had given up on even before it stopped printing the Tab, the new editor of Brookline.news will also be responsible for:

[Training] a next generation of journalists and to create a regional ecosystem for hyperlocal news outlets by developing a support network to share start-up advice and journalistic, business, and fundraising best practices, as well as collaborating when appropriate on stories of wider regional interest.
