In redesign test for Chicago Tribune, paper considers burying news, bringing entertainment features to front section
This just in from Crain’s Chicago Business:
The new face of the Chicago Tribune is taking shape, as staffers at the newspaper put the finishing touches on a prototype set for a test run in the next few weeks.
Crain’s has learned that Tribune Co. will try out some dramatic changes in the 161-year-old broadsheet in a Saturday edition by early August. A version under consideration devotes the paper’s front section to consumer-oriented and entertainment features.
Local, national, international and business news is consolidated in the second section. Weather leads the third section, which also includes comics and classifieds, while the sports section is converted to a tabloid format.
