Rumor of the day

After a century of continuous publication, The Christian Science Monitor will abandon its weekday print edition and appear online only. The paper is currently published Monday through Friday, and will move to online only in April, although it will also introduce a weekend magazine. John Yemma, The Monitor’s editor, said that moving to a Web focus will mean it can keep its eight foreign bureaus open. Despite its reputation, the Monitor's circulation had slipped to 52,000 from 220,000 in 1970. Under the new system, reporters will file stories to the Web and update them severall times a day plus write longer pieces for the weekend magazine. "We certainly know that newsmagazines are cratering," Mr. Yemma sais. "We're under no illusions about it being a growth vehicle."
