New York Times Co. says it will shrink the page width of its flagship newspaper by 3.8 centimetres, consolidate print operations and cut 250 jobs in the face of declining circulation and weak advertising.

They can start with Rhoden.

 

PLEASE :'(

 

They can blow Brooks out of op-ed anytime they'd like, as well.

 

Yeah, because there are way too many conservative voices there.

 

The Times is closing down its Edison, NJ, printing plant and doing all its printing in the Queens facility ---- in the Spring of 2008. The cuts will not come from editorial.

 

The Times is printed, but not read, in Queens.

 

There's no one on Times op-ed who regularly follows more tortured lines of logic than Brooks does.

I agree with him about 20% of the time.

Herbert's tired and obvious, too, if you want to go deeper.

the Edison plant is more or less new, right? Isn't that where color was run?

 

The Edison plant opened in the late 80s or early 90s, I think.

I do recall that shortly after it opened, the Star-Ledger changed its edition/distribution schedule because certain parts of Central Jersey were getting later editions of the Tmes than the Ledger.
