Where’s Ask Amy?
Dear Readers: Moving is stressful. You have to pack the boxes, fill out change- of-address forms, and tell all your friends. My new address is Page 2 of the Live! section.
Changes planned for comics pages
The physical size of the newspaper will be reduced as the Chicago Tribune switches to a skinnier size of newsprint next week. That means the comics layout will change.
We have made the difficult decision to cut some comics instead of further shrinking them. We are doing so because readers have told us repeatedly that the comics were becoming hard to read. We agree.
As a result, the comics in the new daily lineup will all be larger, and more than half will be significantly larger. This is the first time in more than 20 years that we have increased their size.
