'Marketplace' and NYT collaborate on your money *

Partnerships are the wave of the future in news media. A new one emerged in the past couple of days, involving the Los Angeles-based public radio show Marketplace Money. The show and host Tess Vigeland worked closely with the New York Times on a package of stories and advice columns about managing your money as you get older: saving for college and retirement, stuff like that. The package ran in the NYT on Thursday and aired nationally this weekend on the radio. "Something I hope we'll do more of," says NYT associate managing editor Jim Schachter.
