Bloomington Pantagraph to cut stock listings

The Bloomington Pantagraph, a newspaper in Illinois, announced that it was cutting its Sunday stock listings in its business section. Additional pages will be added to the life section.

The paper said, “Why?

— People get their stock information from the Internet, which allows them to immediately stay on top of their investments.

— The weekly stock wrap-up in Sunday’s paper is two days old by the time you see it.

“If you’re used to checking your stocks in the paper, and have a computer, you can go to pantagraph.com and find your stocks.”

Read the announcement here. Scroll down to the bottom and you see a reader complaining about the “dumbing down of the paper.”
