US: Chicago Tribune redesign prototype leaked
Posted by Katherine Thompson on August 27, 2008 at 9:44 AM
A redesign prototype of the Chicago Tribune is being passed around the Web. On the prototype, the newspapers' nickname, The Trib, is blown-up in the masthead with the older "Chicago Tribune" title placed in small letters at the top.
This prototype is likely one of many being reviewed.
"I would caution you against accepting anything you have as anything other than a work in progress," said Tribune Co. Senior Vice President/Corporate Relations Gary Weitman. When asked if the prototype was among those still being considered, he said: "We are just not talking about it until it is debuted."
The redesign is scheduled to debut before the end of September.
