Breakingviews will no longer appear in print NY Times

Rob Cox of Breakingviews writes Thursday that the column will no longer run in the print version of The New York Times but can be found on its website.

Cox writes, “It has been an exciting period in financial journalism. But as times have changed, so must we. After the end of the year, Breakingviews will no longer appear in the print edition of The New York Times. Articles will, however, appear regularly in the DealBook section of NYTimes.com and daily in the pages of The International Herald Tribune.

“With space in print an increasingly precious commodity, the paper has invested in beefing up its business coverage. Breakingviews, too, is in a different situation. Two years ago it became the global financial commentary arm of Thomson Reuters.

“In the final weeks before our partnership with The Times changes, Breakingviews will publish a series of views that we hope will offer some insight into where markets, the economy and a handful of important companies are heading in the coming year. Next year, these articles will be collected in a book that will be available for download at the Breakingviews.com and Reuters.com.”
