Al Día, the Dallas Morning News’ Spanish-language sister newspaper, will be disbanded on March 1, according to an announcement by the Dallas News Guild last week.
Al Día’s five full-time staffers have been reassigned to roles within the DMN newsroom, where they’ll be required to produce content in English. The Dallas Morning News will continue to publish Al Día’s weekly print edition and update its website, but there will be no staff producing original journalism for Dallas’ Spanish-speaking community. Instead, the product will include translations of DMN stories that were written in English and pieces from Spanish-language wire services, according to Leah Waters, the unit chair of the Dallas News Guild and an equity reporter.
