The Guardian has good coverage of Johnston Press’s closure of the offices for Hebden Bridge Times, Tod News and Brighouse Echo, along with its changing the Halifax Courier from a daily to a weekly paper with more extensive online news, and a number of proposed compulsory editorial reduncies.
Journalists at the Halifax Courier NUJ Chapel met with the NUJ Northern/Midlands Organiser today, and a representative from the Chapel was later due to meet with the editor in chief to discuss better ways of introducing changes, that would maintain good local news coverage.
