Syracuse paper folds tech section back into business

The Syracuse Post-Standard announced in today’s paper that its previous stand-alone Technology section would now be folded into its Business section, beginning with Wednesday’s paper.

Senior managing editor Stan Linhorst wrote, “In the end, it no longer made sense to segregate technology news in a separate section. It’s everywhere in our world, and that’s reflected in the newspaper. So we are planning to stop publication of the section, with this, the last issue.”

He later added, “The Business section, which already carries a fair amount of technology news, will devote a full page to technology on Wednesdays, beginning today. On this Business page, we will still want to report news about upcoming events, contracts and awards.

“Technology news already appears more and more often on the front page, inside the main news section of the paper and in the Business section.”

Other changes were made as well. Read about it here.
