A new Times on Monday*

Los Angeles Times subscribers will find a smaller, narrower newspaper starting Monday. The changes include the elimination of the Monday business section, an inch cut to the paper's width and earlier print deadlines. To compensate for the last, the paper will launch LATExtra, which is supposed to catch late-breaking stories that don't make the regular edition.

*Some of the changes won't take effect until tomorrow, according to LA Observed.

  1. That's good. It will match the mined of the twits running the newspaper the last few years.
