Trouble Hits Home

In a front page note Sunday, Cincinnati Enquirer publisher Margaret Buchanan announced the paper will debut a narrower page size in March as well as combine its Local and Life sections.

The Associated Press also reports the paper plans on cutting classified ads on Mondays and Tuesdays as part of further cost-cutting efforts after seeing revenues decline all year.

The Enquirer is owned by Gannett, which recently cut some 2000 jobs in the latest of budgetary precautions being taken by the publishing powerhouse.

Looks like print editions are going to be taking the Jenny Craig route to save money at least for the time being.

Thoughts?
