Indy officially announces tabloid

Hardly news to anyone, but here's the Indy's official announcement. From September 30 the Independent will run in both tabloid and broadsheet format (initially) in the M25 area. The run will start at 85,000 copies in each format. The smaller version will include "every story, every columnist, every picture, every feature". As expected they will be plugging the "commuter convenience" line, but they are also suggesting that they do not plan to drop the broadsheet format altogether -- instead, they wil offer a choice. MediaGuardian's report here.
