  An interesting article on the Guardian website today urlLink about the paper's direction and reach - and their intentions regarding format. I'm not a fan of the tabloid version of the Independent (much less the Times) and was rather hoping that the Guardian would resist this fashionable change, rather as urlLink Roy Greenslade has been intimating in his media columns.
Well, they have, after a fashion, as the article below makes clear that they will not adopt the tabloid format. They will, however, move "to the midi shape of some of the leading European papers, such as Le Monde and La Repubblica, which is considered a more modern and better-shaped receptacle for the Guardian ethos". Hmmm.&nbsp;Elsewhere, today's Guardian carries urlLink an interesting little piece about King Tubby .
