Age and SMH to ditch broadsheet?

Check out the interview published at mUmBRELLA with Jack Matthews of Fairfax Media where he says that he would be surprised if the Monday to Friday editions of the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age remained in broadsheet format.  I’d like to see this move.

    But why? In my experience, a large percentage of SMH readers like the broadsheet format (rather than tabloid).
    Maybe it is just another move towards a common print facility in the longer term?

    I’ve never understood the allure of a broadsheet format, way too unwieldy. But then, being a west aussie, we’re used to a smaller format.
