The Chicago Sun-Times has plans to
launch a new tabloid aimed at younger
readers, perhaps by early November,
Crain's Chicago Business reports. That's
about the same time as its rival, the
Chicago Tribune, will debut its own
tab for the 18- to 34-year-old reader,
which will be called RedEye. The
Sun-Times' parent, Hollinger
International, has ordered four of its
regional newspapers to send three
staffers each to Chicago to put
together the new tab.
