Syracuse Post-Standard fighting with change, change, change

The Post-Standard in Syracuse, N.Y.,another newspaper in the Newhouse's Aadvance Publications group, is looking a number of newspaper changes as a way to battle the effects of the economy. Some of those changes were first announced on Cnylink, which covered a speech by a senior writer at the newspaper.

Changes include combining A and B sections in mid-to-late-April, blending national and local news in a single section.

Three days later, Editor and Publisher Stephen A. Rogers shared A letter to The Post-Standard's readers about difficult times. He included details about revisions to page two and other efforts as well as the staff furloughs and pensions.
