Three alt-weeklies have recently cut back in freelancer-generated content areas.
SF Weekly theater reviewer
Chloe Veltman writes that the paper's weekly Stage setion "will drop from three plays -- my 1,000-word column plus two 200-word capsule reviews -- to just my column." Over at sister paper the
Nashville Scene, books contributor Maria Browning
says on her blog that the book page has been eliminated from that paper altogether. And up in Massachusetts,
Worcester Magazine will
stop running the local bi-weekly comic "Action Geek."
