Deadline Press & Picture Agency has appointed former Scotland on Sunday news editor Peter Laing as chief reporter.

The move reunites Laing with Shaun Milne, Deadline’s consulting managing editor, and owners Scott Douglas and Raymond Notarangelo, who all worked together at the Scottish Daily Record.

His appointment comes as the agency also embarks on rebranding itself as Deadline News as part of a wider redevelopment phase which will see an improved website, downloadable photo archives and further editorial appointments.
