Madison to Lose Another Paper?

Just on the cusp of The Capital Times going online-only, I read that we may be losing another newspaper – the Chicago Tribune. They're going to start distributing the Midwest Edition to fewer areas soon.

Spokesman Michael Dizon (DEE'-zahn) says the newspaper is ending contracts this month to print the paper at sites in Champaign, Illinois, and Madison, Wisconsin.

That means service to some areas downstate and in neighboring states will be discontinued. Dizon says it's a cost savings measure that also will make the Tribune run more efficiently.
