BOTHELL, WA (KPLU) - If you pick up a Seattle paper today, you might notice it's a little narrower than you're used to. The Seattle Times company, which also prints the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, is saving money on newsprint. It's shrinking both dailies by an inch. KPLU business and labor reporter Bellamy Pailthorp went to the company's printing plant to learn more about the latest cost-saving measure for the region's struggling newspapers. © Copyright 2012, KPLU
