With Sam Zell and Randy Michaels in town and making everybody antsy, and speculation raging in the newsroom about the future of Publisher David Hiller, the cutting out of printed sections in the Los Angeles Times has begun. Today's issue of the auto section Highway 1 was the last one, the paper confirmed in an editor's note. Pulitzer-winning columnist Dan Neil will move to the Business pages on July 18.

The Los Angeles Times Magazine was killed last month. Still to come: the details on the future of Books, Sunday Opinion, Food, Real Estate and Home.
