Guardian: New York Times staff in Paris have launched a last ditch attempt to save an editorial operation in the city that stretches back to the 19th century. A person close to the negotiations said: “We proposed a plan in which the newspaper would be still put out from Paris, but with a dramatically reduced number of employees, so to make it work out numbers wise, so we also proposed management consider reducing staff in our other offices in Hong Kong and London … We are doing this to save the same sensibility this paper has had for 130 years.”
