Denmark's top free closes afternoon edition

A week is a long time in the life of newspapers nowadays. Last week Metro International was boasting of becoming the world's largest global newspaper. Today it announces the closure of the afternoon edition of its Copenhagen title, MetroXpress, which is Denmark's most-read newspaper. Pelle Törnberg, president and ceo of Metro, explains that the paper, launched earlier this year, "has not met our demanding financial targets during the trial period." Other editions of MetroXpress will continue. (Via Metro International)
