? MetroTimes: News lite

/This column has heard that at least a few Detroit News reporters
are unhappy with the paper?s ?Real Life, Real News? initiative.
There are two problems with the effort launched in October, gripe
our sources. One is that the policy puts too much emphasis on soft
features, taking valuable resources and space away from hard news.
The other worry is that _attention may be increasingly shifting
toward the suburbs_, shortchanging Detroit./
