The Kush to debut new print and online Observer this week

A looooooooong overdue revamp of the Observer website and print edition will reportedly be revealed on Wednesday. The most sweeping redesign in the New York Observer's 20-year history will hit newsstands Wednesday, transforming the salmon-colored broadsheet weekly into an extralong tabloid.The 45,000-circulation paper that has carved a unique niche by chronicling Manhattan's power elite in politics, real estate and the media, will keep its salmon color but is going with a new logo, a different typeface and shorter stories.
