The paper announced last week that it is “introducing a new era for the Los Angeles Times sports section.”It adds, “The printed sports section will take on the look and feel of a daily sports magazine, with a different design showcasing our award-winning reporting and photography.

Times advises readers, “You can still find local game results, breaking news, instant analysis, commentary and more as games and tournaments are unfolding at latimes.com/sports and via our L.A. Times app. Meanwhile, The New York Times announced last week that it is disbanding its sports department and will rely on coverage of teams and games from its website The Athletic. “That's something that's been prohibited for years at The New York Times.”
