NYT to Launch 'Local' Edition in Chicago
The New York Times is launching its latest “local” edition in Chicago on Friday in conjunction with the Chicago News Cooperative. The Chicago area report will appear on Fridays and Sundays in the New York Times.
The Chicago report will focus on local news, policy, sports and culture. James Warren, a former Chicago Tribune managing editor, will write a regular column.
The Chicago News Cooperative was co-founded on Oct. 22 by former Los Angeles Times editor Jim O’Shea, who also served as managing editor of the Chicago Tribune.
“This collaboration with the Chicago News Cooperative will allow us to expand our coverage of Chicago, supplementing our own work with sophisticated reporting by local journalists who have deep roots in the community,” Bill Keller, the New York Times’ executive editor, said in a statement.
