Gannett consolidating edit in La.

Gannett Co. Inc. is consolidating headline writing, copy-editing and pagination of five Louisiana newspapers at The News-Star in Monroe, La., beginning July 13.
According to Leslie Hurst, vice president of Gannett’s South group, the Monroe hub will initially serve the News-Star, the Advertiser in Lafayette and the Daily World in Opelousas. The Times in Shreveport and the Town Talk in Alexandria will be moved to the centralized operation in September.
All of the papers, as well as other publications and special sections produced at each site, will be served by the new Content Production Center, Hurst said in a memo issued last week.
