Dow Jones closing Riverside plan

Dow Jones and Co. said it will close its Riverside, Calif., print site, with production of The Wall Street Journal and other products reportedly to be transferred to the Los Angeles Times.
The Times didn’t return calls seeking comment.
The Riverside facility produced more than 135,000 copies per day of The Journal, and it also printed Barron's and other newspapers slated for Southern California distribution.
The site's closure brings to six the number of plants News Corp. has shuttered since it acquired Dow Jones in late 2007. In addition to Riverside, DJ targeted for closure plants in Denver, Chicago, Dallas, Orlando, Fla., and Des Moines, Iowa.
