LA Times, Chicago Tribune merge foreign operations

The Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune have announced plans to combine their foreign reporting operations.

The editors of the two newspapers, which are owned by the Chicago-based Tribune Co., made the announcement to their staffs on Tuesday.

Chicago Tribune editor Gerould Kern said the joint operation will be run from Los Angeles, where most of the foreign reporting and editing staff is based.

"The Chicago Tribune will work with the Times on a daily basis to shape coverage priorities," he added in a memo.
