The Orlando Sentinel will join newspapers all over America that are
having their product printed outside their buildings.
The Sentinel and sister newspapers will use GateHouse Media plants
in Daytona Beach and Lakeland, Florida in stages through September when the
changeover will be complete.
The Sentinel will eliminate 89 full-time and 26 part-time positions
involved with the printing. The company
will close its production facility.
The BJ years ago disposed of its printing press on Exchange Street
and had the Canton Repository, and now the Cleveland Plain Dealer, printing the
BJ.
The Sentinel will reduce its payroll to about 300 people.
GateHouse Media has 130 daily newspapers and more than 600 community
publications in 36 states, including the Daytona Beach News-Journal and the
Ledger in Lakeland.
