I understand some of the reasons people move to tabloid-style papers, but personally I've always felt that the tab-style seems more trashy. I can understand smaller to mid-sized papers making a move like this, but for those bigger papers to move to tabloid...it makes me a little sick. I'm a young journalist without much experience, but every one of my peers with whom I study with, meet at J-Conferences, etc...nobody likes tabloid style unless you're going to carry the persona that goes with it (I love the Sun Times).
