Missouri paper expanding Sunday business section

David Stoeffler, executive editor of the Springfield News-Leader newspaper in Missouri, writes about how the Gannett paper is expanding its Sunday business section.

Stoeffler writes, “Most noticeably, you’ll find an expanded Sunday Business section filled with local content.

“Our current daily Business page combines national and local news. Starting next Sunday, we’ll be dividing that content.

“• Every day, you’ll find 1-2 pages of national business news, including an overview and analysis of the stock markets, inside the USA TODAY section.

“• Stocks of local interest and commodities reports will be published Tuesday through Saturday at the bottom of our new Community page.

“• Other breaking local business news will be published day to day in the main news section.

“The weekly highlight, though, will be our Sunday Business section. It will be more than double the size of our current Sunday section and feature weekly in-depth reports from business reporter Thomas Gounley and other News-Leader staff and freelance contributors.”
