Tribune Permanently Closes Newsrooms Of ‘New York Daily News,’ ‘Capital Gazette’ (mediapost.com)

Tribune Publishing, owner of New York’s Daily News and Capital Gazette, among other titles, announced it will permanently close the newsrooms of both newspapers. Staffers will work offsite.

The Daily News will close its newsroom at 4 New York Plaza in Lower Manhattan with no plans for a future physical office, The New York Times reports. Workers have until Oct. 30 to collect items left in the office.

Tribune Publishing, then Tronc, bought the Daily News in 2017 for $1.

“With no clear path forward in terms of returning to work, and as the company evaluates its real-estate needs in light of health and economic conditions brought about by the pandemic, we have made the difficult decision to permanently close the office,” Max Reinsdorf, spokesman for Tribune Publishing, told The New York Times.
