Berkeley Daily Planet Shrinks, Gets Bigger, More Eco-Conscious

In an apparent cost-cutting measure (touted as more environmentally conscious) the twice-weekly Berkeley Daily Planet will become a weekly starting on May 1. The announcement noted that while the print edition is scaling back, the news organization itself will actually be “bigger, faster, and stronger” with expanded columnists and coverage in print, while the web site (to be redesigned over the next few months) will be updated daily with breaking news.
