TV book for subscribers only

On Sunday, the Post-Dispatch announced that the TV book (PD TV) will only be available to subscribers. It’s a move that makes sense — most of our circulation is subscription anyway. The other PD, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, recently made the same move and they’re now dealing with the fallout. (I haven’t heard how much feedback the Post-Dispatch is getting on this move.)

In other Post-Dispatch news, the Weatherbird is moving on A1 from the bottom center of the page to the bottom left. The Weatherbird is a very big deal, at least to folks in the newsroom.

Oh, and our sports editor, Larry Starks, just accepted a job as NBA news editor at ESPN.
