N.Y. Times ditching "Home" section as part of major revamp

The New York Times is closing down its Home section, the latest in a series of moves that have been altering the composition of the print edition.
Executive editor Dean Baquet told employees in a Friday email that next Thursday's installment will be the section's last.
"I've concluded that coverage from the Home section would fit best in other parts of The Times, including Food and Real Estate," wrote Baquet.
In addition to its digital initiatives, where much of the growth is concentrated, the Times has been making targeted investments in print while also eliminating parts of the paper that it no longer sees as value propositions.
