Re: Location of garden articles in newspapers


The Times has taken the usually weekly gardening articles out of the Style section and most of the weekly Home section and they are now put in what we used to call the BQLI sections (Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island) which now cover a much wider area since I now live in Westchester...an it shows up in our section.  So, at one point long, long ago they could have actually had columns by hardiness zones on weekends and gardening articles of regional interest in a main section on Sundays.  But as one analyst put it over the weekend the New York Times (and other papers and news outlets) are publicly traded companies and the driving force is....the bottom line.  In this case the bottom isn't dirt, but dollars.  Reader be damned.
