Baltimore eliminates arts coverage

Baltimore eliminates arts coverage

The Baltimore Sun today scrapped its features department, reassigning its remaining writers to the news department.

This leaves the 30th-ranked US city without any reporting on its busy music scene, museums, galleries and performing arts spaces.

Although the Sun’s music critic Tim Smith got out a while back, the Baltimore Symphony will now struggle even harder to make itself heard at home, let alone anywhere else.

Bad news day.
