Missouri paper cuts Sunday business section

December 28, 2008

The St. Joseph’s News-Press in Missouri is discontinuing its Sunday business section, beginning next week.

Business editor Susan Mires writes, “This edition will be the last Sunday business section for the News-Press. The news from this section will be incorporated into the daily business section. This column will appear on Thursdays.

“It’s a good business plan. But it still kind of hurts. Especially difficult is the end of the agriculture page, which I started several years ago. Most of the ag news will shift to Tuesday editions.

“I’ve been part of the Sunday business section every week for the last nine years. If I’m wandering around a bit aimlessly next week, you’ll understand why. Although I doubt that will last long as the new year will hold plenty of business news.”
