Columbus Dispatch moving biz news into metro section

The Columbus Dispatch is moving business news into its metro & state section from Tuesday through Friday.

Editor Alan D. Miller writes, “We’re moving the Business section into the Metro & State section Tuesday through Friday. Business will remain a stand-alone section on Saturdays and Sundays. Because there is little business news generated on weekends, we are doing as many other newspapers have done and will eliminate the Monday Business section.

“The ‘Week in Review’ stock report and the ‘Week ahead’ story currently in the Monday paper both will move to the Sunday Business section. And when business news breaks on a weekend, we will report it in the A section. To clarify: Tuesday through Friday, the Metro & State section will carry Metro news, Business news, obituaries, Opinion/Forum and weather.”
