Joplin Business Journal breaks EaglePicher story

The nearly-forgotten, seldom seen Joplin Business Journal broke its first big story in a long time today when it revealed that EaglePicher Technologies CEO Steve Westfall was leaving the company for another position.

I would provide you with a link to the Business Journal story, but the Bueiness Journal does not put complete stories on the web, thereby driving people to the Joplin Globe for the catchup story.

Breaking story????? The CEO, who is not even based in Joplin resigns and it's breaking news??? No wonder you don't work in newspapers anymore.

Sorry anon 5:19, Westfall's been based in Joplin since 2006

I say who cares. The Joplin Based CEO makes no decisions on his own, all the real power is at the coporate level. He is basically a figure head for the community.

Looks like he knows what is going on with EaglePicher's largest group Hillsdale Automotive and leaving for greener pastures.
