Tribune media group thinks it can cut 500 newspaper pages a week companywide

摘要

The Tribune newspaper group thinks it can cut 500 newspaper pages a week, companywide, by reducing editorial content to a 50-50 level with advertising, the group's flagship daily Chicago Tribune reported in its web edition yesterday. Contacts said such a move could cut Tribune's newsprint consumption by 15%, and along with other conservation measures could see the group's newsprint needs slashed as much as 30%, perhaps by as early as yearend.
