The NYT fits what now?
Joe Strupp, a senior editor at Editor and Publisher, has something curious to say in an appraisal of the new, littler New York Times:
"All The News That Fits?" That's the slogan? Joe, you might want to take a second look at that hard copy of The Times you plucked out of your driveway this morning. Because mine said "All the News That's Fit to Print" -- like it has for the past century or so.
In the end, this will be yet another change that readers will accept and get used to. Of course, in one irony, it will give new meaning to the Times classic slogan, offering just a bit less room for “All The News That Fits."
