This seems like a dumb and expensive idea:

The already financially-strapped Chicago Tribune — whose parent company filed for bankruptcy last month — announced it will produce a tabloid version of its tradition format available only at newsstands starting Monday.
Home delivery subscribers will still get the Trib’s traditional broadsheet edition, and the tabloid version will contain all of the broadsheet’s content, with slightly different photos and headlines. The company will still distribute its RedEye editions free.
