Journalists at The Wall Street Journal are grumbling about a new policy governing the number of people who can be credited with bylines or taglines on articles.

Editors and reporters at Rupert Murdoch’s American broadsheet were informed this week that stories should generally carry no more than two bylines, including reporting credits that are often tagged onto the ends of articles, according to sources briefed on the change.
