US: Redesigned Chicago Tribune to launch Sept. 29
Posted by Lauren Drablier on September 18, 2008 at 10:02 AM
The new design of the Chicago Tribune was shown to staff members on Tuesday.
The Tribune will reduce its number of sections from five to three. The front page will be dominated by large visuals and less stories. The front section will contain business, local, national and international news. There will be a sports and features section called "Live!" and Sunday's Perspective section will be cut.
The redesigned Tribune is set to debut on September 29 and a major marketing campaign is expected to start soon.
All daily newspapers owed by Tribune Co. daily are in the process of being redesigned in a cost-cutting effort. By reducing the number of sections, the Tribune will reduce its output by around 40 pages weekly.
