Gannett combines production of La. dailies

The Town Talk in Alexandria, La., will be printed at The Daily Advertiser in Lafayette, La., beginning next month.
Gannett Co. Inc. owns both papers.
The Town Talk said approximately 40 positions will be eliminated as a result of the move. News and sales operations will remain in Alexandria, the paper said.
Gannett has closed more than 20 production facilities since the publisher in the last 18 months began to take steps to consolidate printing operations.
