New York Times Shifts Euro Presence to London

Financial Times: The New York Times is ramping up its presence in London at the expense of its long-term European headquarters in Paris, a shift it attributes to France’s inflexible employment laws. The company has merged its London bureau with the London office of the International New York Times, adding digital editors and a branded content studio, while departing editorial staff at its Paris operation are not being replaced. The shift in resources from Paris to London has fuelled talk that the newspaper may move the International New York Times to London. A spokeswoman said there are “no current plans” to move.
