The British newspaper The Times, resumes publishing on November 13, 1979, after suspending publication almost a year before on December 1, 1978. The shutdown was due to a dispute between management and printing unions over new technology, automation, and union demands regarding manpower levels. The closure led to a significant loss of revenue also affecting the Times sister papers; The Sunday Times and the Times Literary Supplement.
