The New York Times is planning a major overhaul of how it views and conducts journalism.
The new plans come two years after NYT’s innovation report came out, which was an extensive blueprint of how the paper views itself in the digital age moving forward. The current plan is more tangible — it talks about having ‘clusters’ instead of clumping major topics like climate change under certain desks like National, International or Metropolitan. There are also plans to move away print planning from all editors to dedicated teams of designers and editors for a more extensive focus on digital storytelling.
