US : Sun-Times to cut margins
To save money the Chicago Sun-Times is literally cutting its margins a quarter-inch off the top of the tabloid-size paper.
This "cutting edge idea" allows for slightly smaller pages, which requires less newsprint, a potentially money saving idea although Cruickshank said "I don't know what [savings] we're going to get out of this."
The company hopes the change will lead to "greater efficiency, yielding clean color copies faster, thus requiring fewer papers to be scrapped, which is bound to impress any potential buyer for the paper," says The Chicago Tribune.
The paper has been through two size changes over the last couple of months but this is the most dramatic yet.
