News Scope in the Internet Age

The Los Angeles Times, is "folding its daily national edition". Will the next tier of papers down the news chain (in scope, not quality, necessarily) take a cue from this?

As a news consumer, I would have increased interest in the Projo if it devoted less space to reprinting wire-service stories -- which I can get in a more timely fashion from other places on the web -- and devoted more space to actual local news, where the range of sources for information is much more limited.

Jump ahead of the curve, and give us more local news Projo!!!!
