The Shrinking Times

More good news from the Global War on Terror, from NewsMax:

The New York Times Co. plans to reduce the width of its flagship newspaper by an inch and a half and close a printing plant in Edison, N.J., resulting in the loss of about 250 jobs, the company announced Tuesday.
The reduction in width will bring the paper's size in line with what is becoming an industry standard. USA Today, the nation's largest-selling daily, already prints on the smaller size, and Dow Jones & Co.'s Wall Street Journal, the No. 2-selling daily, is moving to the smaller size early next year.
The changes at The New York Times will go into effect by the second quarter of 2008, the company said in a statement early Tuesday, and will save about $42 million a year. The job cuts account for about one-third of the Times' total production work force of 800.

I was watching CNN this morning whose hosts really downplayed the significance of this, blaming the internet and cable news for the decline in the Times viewership. No mention of flubbed reporting and treasonist leaking of our vital National Security secrets to our terrorsits enemies.
