Newspapers update their style; several redesign

Posted by Bhamini .N on February 4, 2009 at 3:03 PM
Newspapers have been redesigning their papers in an effort to break away from traditional designs and adapt to the new digital age.

The Greeneville Sun, a family-owned daily in northeastern Tennessee, launched a new redesigned version of the paper yesterday. Some of the changes include narrower page width, new fonts and nameplate and some title changes. John M.Jones Jr, the editor said that the paper has been working with Edward Henninger, a design specialist from North Carolina and that the whole redesign project took over a year.

The Hartford Courant also launched it redesigned version back in September last year, while The Boston Herald followed suit in October. More recently, the San Francisco Chronicle also revealed a new look to its daily last week.
