Washington Post closes book section

The Washington Post is eliminating its weekly stand-alone book review section from next month. Instead, the reviews will be carried in its style and outlook sections. Executive editor Marcus Brauchli said it was a cost-cutting move and will result in less books coverage. The Los Angeles Times terminated its stand-alone book-review section in 2007, but the New York Times Book Review soldiers on. (Via Boston Globe)
