San Francisco Examiner dropping Sunday edition

SAN FRANCISCO - The San Francisco Examiner will drop its Sunday edition and replace it with an expanded Friday edition, which will include more weekend sports and entertainment information, the newspaper said. <br> <br> The move will change the paper&#39;s publishing cycle to Monday through Friday mornings. It has not published on Saturday under current ownership. <br> <br> The Examiner is operating largely on a $66 million, three-year subsidy from the Hearst Corp., former owner of the newspaper. <br> <br> In 2000, Hearst purchased the San Francisco Chronicle and merged its Examiner staff with the Chronicle&#39;s. The Fang family of San Francisco became owners of The Examiner and hired its own staff of writers and editors. <br>
