LANCASTER, Pa. (AP) - April 1, 2009
Officials of Lancaster Newspapers Inc. say the Intelligencer
Journal and the Lancaster New Era will begin publishing a single
edition Monday through Saturday starting June 29. The Lancaster New
Era is currently an afternoon paper.
Company officials say they will cut about 60 full-time jobs and
40 part-time jobs over the next few months as operations are
streamlined.
Lancaster Newspapers president Harold E. Miller says the
decision came as a result of the economic downturn and increased
operating expenses related to publishing two papers with separate
staffs.
The company's Sunday paper, the Lancaster Sunday News, is
unaffected.
