Perry White is the former editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet.

Career at the Daily Planet
At some point, Perry White became the editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet. In the early 2000s, White hired Clark Kent as a journalist and introduced him to Lois Lane.

He later hired Catherine Grant as a gossip columnist and gave her the nickname, "CJ Grant".

In May 2009, White called CJ Grant to tell her that her investigation into Midvale being the "luckiest town in America" was outside the purview of her gossip column, but she told him she wants to report some real news and hung up.

He called her back a while later asking her to report on the Balloon Boy Incident, but she told him that she is sick of reporting on gossip and quit to start her own journalistic outlet. She also told him to start calling her "Cat Grant".

He was replaced as editor-in-chief by Samuel Foswell some time later.
