Kansas City Star cuts Sunday business section

The Kansas City Star is moving its Sunday MoneyWise content to its Saturday paper, according to reader representative Derek Donovan.

Donovan writes, “The Saturday Business section is instead being retooled and expanded into ‘Dollars & Sense,’ which will also have a focus on personal-finance issues.  But yes, it’s a net cut not to have an extra stand-alone section on Sundays.”

“Others have also noticed that the daily Opinion section and Sunday Go travel section have seen cuts.  The Opinion section has lost one page a day Monday through Saturday, and Go is now just a single page on the back of A+E.

“No question: Both are victims of the paper’s current issues with ad revenue and the integration of digital media delivery.  Different editors will choose what to state explicitly about the changes they’re making in their sections, but readers want to know what’s going away and what’s changing.”
